Marlins' Jose Urena Drills Braves' Ronald Acuna With First Pitch, Benches Clear

Atlanta Braves 20-year-old rookie Ronald Acuna has homered in five straight games, including the last three as a leadoff man. So Miami Marlins pitcher Jose Urena drilled him with the first pitch of the game on Wednesday. The Braves did not appreciate that...

As Acuña headed to first base, the rookie outfielder tossed his shin guard toward the pitcher’s mound which got Braves manager Brian Snitker shouting again, and the benches cleared again.

Acuna needs to be more worried about pulling his hat further down, the braves management was pissed off in spring about the way he wore his hat

gutless POS pitcher needs to be fined and suspended...just cause you are scared he is gonna go yard on you on your first pitch is no reason to beam a player that has brought fire and passion back to the game and is igniting a franchise...Derek Jeter needs to get that shite show in Miami under control..i honestly think the Braves AAA affiliate in Gwinnett could beat the Marlins right now...they suck arse.
