The contact generated the immediate annoyance of the Venezuelan, who took a few steps towards the mound before being restrained.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"es\" dir=\"ltr\">El pan nuestro de cada juego entre Marlins y Braves: Un pelotazo a Ronald Acu\u00f1a Jr. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/WVYOKM3wRb\">pic.twitter.com\/WVYOKM3wRb<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Enrique Rojas\/ESPN (@Enrique_Rojas1) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Enrique_Rojas1\/status\/1960823032433328501?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">August 27, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\nAlthough no physical confrontations occurred, both benches and bullpens emptied amid the incident. Subsequently, the umpires decided to issue a warning to both teams, a decision that unleashed Snitker's fury, who was ejected from the game. It was the 22nd ejection of his career and the second of the current season.\n\n\"You just don't go inside after a home run like that, because if you miss and hit the batter, things like this happen,\" Snitker stated after the game.\n\nFor his part, Acu\u00f1a \u2013 who has been hit by Marlins pitches on nine occasions throughout his career, more than by any other team \u2013 preferred not to speculate on Gusto's intention. The pitcher explained that it was a pitch that moved too far inside, ruling out bad faith.\n\n\n<p>The game ended with a resounding victory for the Braves by a score of <strong>12-1<\/strong>, a result that keeps the Atlanta team in good offensive rhythm after the return of their star Acu\u00f1a Jr., a key piece in their aspirations for the postseason.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Miami. \u2013 The duel between the Atlanta Braves and the Miami Marlins was charged with tension on Wednesday afternoon, after the star Venezuelan outfielder Ronald Acu\u00f1a Jr. was hit by a pitch that caused the benches to empty and the ejection of manager Brian Snitker, in the game played at loanDepot park.
