The Home Run Derby field is having a last-minute shakeup. On Friday, Major League Baseball announced that Matt Olson will replace his Braves teammate Ronald Acuña Jr. at the 2025 T-Mobile Home Run Derby,

They tried Ronald Acuña Jr. as their No. 3 hitter. It was the first time he ever hit third. In fact, it was the first time he hit in any spot besides leadoff in the Atlanta lineup since May 9, 2019, per Grant McAuley.

Ronald Acuña Jr. went yard twice against the Athletics on Wednesday, marking the 14th time that he has given the Atlanta Braves multiple home runs out of the leadoff spot in his career.

Ronald Acuña Jr. hits two home runs as the Atlanta Braves crushed the Athletics 9-2 . Acuña's first homer was a massive leadoff shot and his second came in the fourth for his 14th career multi-homer game.
