POS Urena hits Acuna on the elbow with the first pitch to keep him from hitting a leadoff home run!!!! Not only do benches clear but security guards were deployed to keep the fans from charging the field. Social media is blowing up and Urena receiving death threats.

That was some real bush league bull$hit. Dude better hop on the plane immediately following this game like his life depended on it. F*CK THAT COWARD!!!

I didn’t see it, did he do it on purpose?

The Braves coming up with a strategy in the dugout ..

"we will just bean their star player too" . . . . . . . .*looks at Marlins lineup card*

"oh sht, well we will just bean someone with a high salary. . " *looks at lineup card again*

"fck it, just throw strikes" :lol:

lol, I was thinking the same thing. How do you exact revenge for your superstar against a team that doesn't even have a semistar?

Most definitely did, although I don't think he was aiming for the elbow, his command just sucks. Immediately after hitting Acuna he dropped his glove as a "come at me" gesture. Dude was eventually tossed & better serve a suspension.

Derek Jeter more interested in crappy mandatory programs to get everyone on the team to speak Spanish than put a competitive club out there. It only goes more downhill from here.

So, I heard Dee was the talk of talk of the tinseltown with that massive 360 foot home run in the 12th to get the M's the win! Among all those career home runs he's compiled, that was surely the most special of them all!

Then again, he only has like 13.

I could just see a CSI episode made of this Braves/Marlins game.

After the game Urena is found dead in his hotel room but the suspect list is so large they need to employ the help of ginger super detective who likes to flip his glasses and say something witty after looking over the crime scene.

I won't defend urena because other than being on a wicked heater Urena did nothing to provoke the beaning but urena had that placed in his back, Acuna, with his awkward full body dry heaves shot his elbow backwards where it got hit. A small part of me likes Urena's attitude to take the rookie down a peg, but I don't think urena has the status to make that beaning, I also think that kind of attitude truly should be removed from the game, even if I secretly kinda like it.

I get it, everyone (outside fans of the organization young stud plays for) wants a piece of "the next big thing", sometimes out of jealousy (that they aren't on their team) or sometimes cuz they just don't like their ****y attitude...I'm guilty of it myself back when Puig & Harper were rookies (was never jealous of Puig, just never liked him but Harper I certainly was)...but as for Urena, he's just a crappy pitcher who knew he had no chance of getting Acuna out cuz nobody else in their rotation could, so he just beaned him. It was just a case of "well, if you can't beat 'em, bean 'em". Sure, if it were Kershaw or Bumgarner pitching it would have been more of a statement and they would have had the sort of pinpoint command to be able to hit him in the thigh or butt.

He didn't just take him down a peg, he threw a pitch that was in the 99.9th percentile of all of his pitches this season in terms of velocity. He couldn't just hit in with his usual 92 sht but chose to pump it up to 97.5 ::facepalm::
