Braves activate Ronald Acuña Jr. from injured list

The Atlanta Braves activated outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. from the 10-day injured list after he strained his left hamstring. Outfielder Brewer Hicklen was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett in a corresponding move. Acuña will join the team in New York for a series against the Mets, and the Braves have a stronger record with him in the lineup.
