Ronald Acuña Jr. hits grand slam in Braves win over Red Sox

Ronald Acuña Jr. hit a grand slam and kissed his bat in celebration during the Atlanta Braves' 10-2 victory against the Boston Red Sox on Thursday at Fenway Park.

Acuña drilled the ball over the Green Monster in the sixth inning for his third homer of the season and first since April 24. The outfielder took a few steps across the batter’s box, kissed his bat and slammed it before circling the bases. It marked his fourth regular-season grand slam and came after he had gone 5-for-30 since returning from a left hamstring injury on May 19.
