The Braves lost to the Yankees 5-4 in an exhibition game Friday afternoon.

It may seem like just another meaningless spring training game but it was at least eventful.

The Braves' top prospect Ronald Acuna hit a home run and NFL quarterback Russell Wilson played for New York and struck out in his only at-bat.

The Braves are 2-6.

Take  a look at a photo gallery from the game (above).

The Braves open the season on March 29 when they host the Phillies.
