Braves manager Brian Snitker said X-rays on the ankle were negative and Acuna is day-to-day, according to The Athletic's David O'Brien.
Acuna, who homered in the first inning of Thursday's contest, leads MLB with 12 round-trippers and owns a .302/.399/.651 slash line with six steals.
Braves outfielder Cristian Pache also exited the game with hamstring tightness in the third inning. Pache will head to the injured list, according to O'Brien.
