Ronald Acuña Jr. is back in Atlanta’s lineup after missing one game when he fouled a ball off his knee against Cincinnati. He will bat second and start in right field in Thursday’s series finale, following treatment to his knee over the past 36 hours.
Atlanta’s other lineup notes include Drake Baldwin at designated hitter, Sean Murphy catching Tyler Mahle, Mike Yastrzemski returning after sitting against left-handed starters, and Austin Riley batting eighth as he continues to deal with strikeout issues. First pitch at Truist Park is scheduled for 7:15 p.m. ET.
