The Atlanta Braves announced Ronald Acuña Jr. will be placed on the 10-day IL and Jarred Kelenic will be recalled to take his place.

Acuña exited Tuesday's game in the sixth inning after chasing after a foul ball along the line and a double into the gap by back-to-back batters. He was able to walk off the field under his own power, albeit gingerly, which is nonetheless encouraging. Walking with a significant Achilles injury is pretty much impossible.

Acuña held back tears when he was asked about the possibility that his Achilles tightness could be something more significant.
