Acu??a saw a fly ball that he hit at the bottom of the third inning of yesterday’s 5-3 win against the Dodgers like it was a home run but it hit the right field wall and also what should happen to be an extra-base hit flipped into one and he was thrown out trying to steal second base.
Braves manager Brian Snitker pulled Acu??a from the game immediately due to his lack of hustle to the drama.
«There’s no excuse for it. I just sort of took it and said’Obviously’ He’s the manager, I’m the player and I’ll respect his decisions,» Acu??a mentioned about being pulled out of the game in the fourth inning.
«You’ve gotta run. It is not gont be okay here,» Snitker told reporters. «As a teammate, you’re accountable for 24 other men. That name on the front is a good deal more important than that name around the back of the jersey. You can not do this. We’re trying to achieve anything and do something unique here. Private things have to be placed on the back burner»
Acu??a is young and he will make mistakes but he’s handling this episode the right way. The talented outfielder is hitting .296 with 35 home runs and 85 RBIs in 125 games and if he learned his lesson afterward the incident will soon be forgotten immediately.
