NEW YORK _ Ronald Acuna has the fifth 30-30 season in Braves history.
After swiping second base in the eighth inning of Friday's game in New York, the outfielder joined one of the more exclusive lists in Braves history.
He's the fourth Brave to reach the 30-30 mark for steals and homers, joining Hank Aaron, Ron Gant and Dale Murphy. Gant did it twice (1990, 1991).
Acuna is the quickest to achieve 30-30 in Braves history, doing so in his 130th game. That bests Gant's mark in 1991 (149).
The 21-year-old is the second player to join the 30-30 club before his 22nd birthday, joining Mike Trout.
The reigning rookie of the year has 36 homers and 30 steals, putting a 40-40 season within the realm of possibility. Only four players have posted 40-40 seasons (Alfonso Soriano, Alex Rodriguez, Barry Bonds, Jose Canseco).
