When Ronald Acuna stole second base Wednesday, he joined an exclusive club in Braves history.

The 21-year-old outfielder has logged 25 homers and 25 steals, an achievement only five other Braves can claim.

Ron Gant did so three times, in 1990, 1991 and 1993. Hank Aaron did it in 1963 and 1968. Dale Murphy (1983), Andruw Jones (1998) and Chipper Jones (1999) each reached the mark once.

Acuna is the first MLB player to reach the 25-25 club this season (four did so last season). He leads the National League in steals.
