Ronald Acuña Jr. has set a new record for the Atlanta Braves by achieving his 190th stolen base, surpassing previous franchise records since its relocation in 1966. This milestone places him ahead of other notable players like Hank Aaron, who held the modern era record with 240 stolen bases, and Rabbit Maranville, who is second with 194. Acuña's achievement also draws near to the all-time franchise record of 434 stolen bases held by Herman Long. Notably, Acuña's current season performance is reminiscent of Jose Reyes's 2007 season, with Acuña scoring 19 runs and making nine steals in his first 20 games.
