Braves' Austin Riley Returns to 10-Day IL with Lower Abdominal Strain

Atlanta Braves third baseman Austin Riley has been placed on the 10-day injured list due to a strained lower abdominal muscle, marking his second IL stint in two months for the same injury. He sustained the re-aggravated injury on Sunday while stretching to tag out Cincinnati's Elly De La Cruz at home plate, leading him to leave the game. Riley, who returned from his previous IL stint on July 25, is currently batting .260 with 16 home runs and 54 RBI over 102 games this season.
