ARLINGTON, Texas \u2014 Beware Major League Baseball! Ronald Acu\u00f1a Jr. is on a tear, and Atlanta’s hot start to the season only continues to carry over into the summer as long as Acu\u00f1a remains on the tear that he is on right now.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Acu\u00f1a Jr. hit a home run in his fourth consecutive game, helping Atlanta to come from behind and defeat the Texas Rangers 6-5 at Globe Life Field on Wednesday. Ozzie Albies and Austin Riley each had run-scoring hits in the eighth inning to tie the game before Orlando Arcia’s opposite-field solo home run to right-center field in the ninth won the game for Atlanta.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
