As a Phillies fan who knows how much of an impact Acuna is to helping the Braves secure the NL East, this was beyond dirty and no doubt intentional
TheFinnFTW he is helping a lot. He just set the braves record with 5 games straight with a homerun. He is the youngest player in the MLB to have 3 games with lead off homeruns
Hey finn. What's up buddy.
He should have just like worked around him or something
eyyyy its finn
TheFinnFTW hi Finn watch your nhl videos I’m a huge braves fan and best luck to your Phillies
Urena actually located a fastball ...wow
Ken Wade LMAOOOO
Best comment here.
Ken Wade That’s actually hilarious
lol
LMAO
He’s the worst pitcher in the Marlins lineup and now he’s the most hated player in the league. Nice job Ureña 👍
George Wang true he is pretty bad
Yep his era is a 11.25
Nah, nobody other than Braves fans care. Why did he hit him? Did acuna show him up or something?
Ross Gerabaldi - all of baseball cares actually. The fact that you don't know why he was hit shows you're absolutely clueless on Acuña and the national league in 2018? Who is your team?
Ross Gerabaldi Houston fan here. Almost all of baseball fans care. It's unacceptable to hit a young stud that's trying to help Atlanta to clinch the division with a really hard fastball. What does Miami have to lose anyway? They are already dead last by ton of games. This just shows how competitive they are and other teams don't like that. Why are you defending him? At least try to show you're not scared of competition. This made me dislike Urena even more. Such a dick move.
SNITKER WAS ABOUT TO WHOOP SOMEONE'S ASS! I love it!
Crispy awesome to see him stick up for his players!
Crispy
You Damn Right Crispy, Nothing and I mean NOTHING Shows your guys you got their back like what he did.
If I was manager I'd be heading home with assault charges
Crispy...Bobby Cox would have thrown a punch...LOL
Dirty baseball. Drilling a guy for being a good baseball player is unacceptable bush league.
Who's here after the Braves won 29-9 two years later? They didn't forget this moment.
ikr
ooo wow TWO WHOLE YEARS LATER?! WOW NEVER FORGET
If that wasn’t intentional then I don’t know what is
eilliw nodrod maybe but don’t intentionally try to injure him throw at a body part it doesn’t hurt as much.
eilliw nodrod You’re allowed to hit homeruns in baseball.
at the start of the vid i thougt *no way thats ntentional! why would he do that?* but now i realise he did that in fear of him hitting a fucking homerun-which is his JOB
He hit him because he hits home runs? Ya, I doubt it.
From the harper - Strickland fight?
Great sportsmanship by the rookie Acuna. Class act 20 year old future star
I get drilled, i start walking to first screaming at him, he turns his back shoulder t the goddamn spine
Ethan Larson bruh I woulda chucked my bat at the dude and drop kick him😂😂
Bro predicted it😊
Me in 2023 seeing that he might get a 40-70 season
Dirty. Acuna was tearing it up.
Stefan Last Name dirty? It's a men's sport. It's not made for pussies.
He hit him on purpose because Acuña has been on fire against the Marlins the last 3 days
A E
Oh shit we got a tough guy here!!!!
Yeah take a 97mph fast ball to the ELBOW and try to walk it off... Willing to bet you don’t even play baseball let alone any sports.
*Note as of a month later* Still is.
@@spadorade 😂😂😂😂 Fr
First time Ureña hit his target all season
Coming from a Brewers fan, this was absolutely dirty. The broadcaster nailed it, it’s the Bryce Harper thing all over again.
5 years later.. Snit, Wash and Young still looking after these young men. Love this coaching staff!
He doesn't deserve to throw another pitch this season. Absolutely disgraceful!
WittyBanter 96 I’d ban him for 2 seasons, 1 for the act, 2 if there’s permanent damage to Acuna.
This kid is playing the game the right way, and to see this makes my stomach turn. that was uncalled for and I don't blame the Braves for being upset, for the Braves and their fans I am glad that he is fine and back out on the field, and also I am glad the MLB took the correct action to make sure the message was sent that this was totally uncalled for.
You can hear the fans yelling "THROW HIM OUT!!"
What crazy is Urena will always be remembered for this and only this
The heckler @ 2:45
Baseball fans can universally agree that this is unacceptable and there’s no place for this in baseball.
Stop! This is what makes it interesting. UMPs shoulda done something. ASAP. To take control the game.
There is a spot for it this just happened to not be the spot.
Never watched any MLB games/clips this year since Tigers suck, but couldn't resist clicking on this suggested video due to the entertainment from it, this brings back competition, but not in a good way.
William Johnson there is a place and this is where u do it. U don’t hit him but when u crowed the plate and r on a hot stretch like Acuna he and his teammates should expect a brushback. Wrong to hit him, but let’s not act like he went head hunting, he played the next game. CALM DOWN! U don’t hit him but u DO brush him back. This is part of the game and it has been for 100+ years. All the games all-time greats did it. When hitters crowed the plate and r on hot streaks; pitchers brushed them off to let know that that’s my plate 2, and that ur not gonna walk into the box every at-bat and ur hot shit and hit the ball 10 miles every time 2. And the idea that it’s bad 4 the sport is bull crap, this is on every big time paper in America and it gets ESPN, FS1, and other sports talk shows to talk about baseball 4 a change other than Yankees & Red Sox
Jai Shields a brushback is one thing but he missed that “brushback” by a mile. Clearly intentional hit for no reason and I’m not even a braves fan.
Even JT Realmuto (catcher) didn’t want Urena to hit Acuna with a pitch. Look at his reaction.
Those announcers were 100% spot on. They had to toss Urena, because if I'm the Braves manager and I see him come out there in the 3rd, I'm telling my pitcher to drill him right in the spine. Absolutely bush league stuff and one of the few instances where I wholeheartedly agree with retaliation. If I'm the Braves, no matter where Urena ends up, even if he's not even a Marlin anymore by the next time they see him, drill him.
Braves are fortunate to have their TV crew. They tell it like it is, even though it gets them in trouble sometimes.
Seemed like a cowardly thing to do. Obviously intentional, and like others mentioned the marlins urenah will have a target on his back the next time he faces a Braves pitcher
David Furr they were right about this but completely out of line calling the dodgers unprofessional. They’re clowns shock jocks.
Probably won't even be a Brave's pitcher could be the next team he faces that do it for the Braves
Magicforever1000 then their pitcher would get ejected
Im 13 and a HUGE braves fan. Watching this game with my dad, and seeing this happen made us livid! They only suspended him for 3 games which is only 1 for him! Thank God acunas ok
Too bad MLB can't alter that rule about suspending pitchers (3 game suspension is a 1 game suspension for the pitcher)
2:48 anyone else heard that?! Lol
Aside from his 3-12 record this season, Urena is actually pretty good.
That statement is as trash as he is.
Jon Tolar lmao
Im a braves fan but urena is actually pretty good.. Doucebag tho
We're in 2018 and you still pay attention to pitcher's win loss record? lol
Self Series Im a Braves fan but Urena isnt any good. 3-12 with a 4.74 ERA on the season. Also has location problems, hes tied with hitting the most batters in the NL with 11 HBP. Ill just hope your joking 😂
Jon Tolar shut up dude you don't Kno shit
They just salty cuz they are in last place
Dead Dragon Studios you spelled they wrong
Ty Fly
"pmace" = place
"Acunã" = Acuña
"thay" = they
How do you only see "thay"?
nah they salty cus they got slammed by a fastball and are crying about it
Not a Marlins fan but at least they win when they get to the playoffs. They are 2 for 2 over the last 21 years with two chips. Fucking braves won like 16 division titles since the 90's and only with only one chip to show for it. Why even bother making the playoffs?
how are they in last?
I like the part when Acuna threw his ankle protection right beneath Urena. What a badass😂😂... I was at the game too and got to hear the booing erupt
J R I bet the place erupted when Dansby hit that bomb too
Glad you boys won that. Absolutely unacceptable. I'm a red Sox fan, and I've seen some dirty things, but that was one of the worst.
J R I’m not a huge baseball fan, so can you please tell me what throwing his ankle protection symbolize?
I'm sure people all over Cobb county heard the boos and the stadium erupt when dansby hit the 3 run homer later in the game
D-Wait Nation being pissed off
I agree with what the guy said 2:46
Hunter B what did he say ?
@@Zack-hi2kx "GET OUT OF THE GAME P*SSY!!!"
Even though I’m a cubs fan I always respected the Braves. Took care of Maddox and is an overall tough ball club
Props to Acuna for keeping his cool and staying classy... That's very difficult to do considering how scummy that pitch was.
Punk ass knew what he was doing.
It was awesome how team mates pull together. The emotion of the game.
I’d love to see the Marlins broadcast of this
Dont throw him out of the game. Lets see what happens when he takes his first ab.
James Benton Ticer don’t want more Braves getting hurt.
I would love to see him get hit😂
*goes up to bat, look out to the mound and see the pitcher just pull out a 9mm*
No we gonna get him in a week when we are in Miami
They're gonna put his ass out of commision. The first pitcher he is against will make sure he gets his just desserts. Bush League players like him always get as good as they give.
This was a complete cheap shot on the account of Urena! unbelievable!! But along with The Braves clearing the bench defending Acuna, when Dansby hit his HR later in the game he paid respect to Acuna by doing a version of Acura's Home plate celebration as he crossed home-based.
Watched this live last night. Absolutely disgusting. Bet you Marlins manager was behind this.
I was so pissed that night. It was a punk move by the Marlins. Unbelievable.
...and the Braves won the game! 😊😊😊😊
Uncle Bryce yes we did.
A Sullivan yes it will
A Sullivan yes it will continue rule 9:23
A Sullivan Sore Loser 😋
KyleIsTheLitness OG Bad strategy! Just change the pitcher or walk him. Still lost the game and they may suspend the pitcher.
Oooooo boy. I love the way Inciarte came hoppin our that dugout
My favorite part of this was Mattingly’s pathetic attempt to defend Ureña
It made him look really really bad.
@@YouStinkFatherhe looked like an angry Grandma at Sizzler after they ran out of roast beef
Braves fan here... I have absolutely no problem with players policing themselves, that's just the way it works in baseball. I played baseball for 25 years and this has always held true. The thing I have a problem with is throwing at a player simply because he is playing well. That's a chicken shit move and it says a lot about a team. This is by no means over, sometimes it takes years to even the score, but its definitely not forgotten...
I pulled an autographed Urena card from a Topps pack 4 days ago............. Didn't think a card could be worth less than nothing.... I was wrong
I wish I had it to carry to the indoor shooting range for target practice!
They actually still sell baseball cards?
Neil Hatrick Harris 😂😂😂
Neil Hatrick Harris Doogie!!! How is Vin?
Thomas Paquette card collecting is huge right now
Wont be surprised if a marlins hitter is hit tomorrow or when they play in Miami. That was dirty and 100% intentional
The Braves likely won't see Urena until 2019.
Going to the game on the 23rd in Miami want to see a brawl happen
Should just hit the whole lineup. Shittest thing in baseball. Pussy ass pitchers hanging behind their team everytime. Blue should make urena come out to take an AB
I'd just wait until they face Urena again and hit him then. No point in hurting an innocent player. Just head right for the source.
It should be Anderson for pushing Eric Young.
Acuña handled that with class... Doing nothing more than simply dropping his armpad on Ureña's mound... After getting assaulted by a 97 mph fastball...
That's ok for such a young player, got hit cuz was on fire lately, hitting lead off Hr's in last 2 games
I’d of charge the mound
Rainbow of Sparta dumb idea when you can’t feel your arm.
Braves need to resign John Rocker to face Urena the next time he pitches.
Tim K you’re goddamn right. Rocker would plunk that idiot.
That racist wouldn’t like half of the players on his own roster
Tim K 😂🤣😂🤣
Haha I thought the same! He would have sprinted from that pen like a bull and wooped urena's ass!
After he plunks Urena, he would’ve followed by plunking Acuña. You can’t trust a racist*
Urena, You'd better be out of Atlanta before Midnight. You put a giant target on your forehead. The Suspension from the MLB will be nothing compared to what Braves Fans will mark you for. These Fans Don't Forget. Absolute Bush League Action.
Hey! do you remember me?
And on the first pitch up and in? That’s garbage man.
Was so upset to see that, Acuña is such a talent and he was going for history. That’s some bush league garbage and mlb fans deserve better. Hopefully his suspension is not a light one, Urena has a history at throwing at players he’s threatened by. Urena=pussyfoot
Mike Guinto Mind if I ask how many times has that guy done this?
That is right. That's right
The moment went from excitement about Acuna's streak to anger towards Urena and concern for Acuna.
As a baseball fan, this made me sick. I'm glad Ureña got a six game suspension.
Best manager I've seen in a long time
97 MPH fastball right at his elbow. Sooo unintentional. (Sarcasm)
Anthony Long he hit him in the funny bone (the human eject button ) with 97
Even realmuto showed frustration right away when he hit him
"It will be beyond unsportsmanlike, it will be an act of hatred."
Urena has been hitting people left and right all season.The boy is a head case. He clearly threw at Acuna Jr. on purpose at 97mph. If Urena isn't suspended and heavally fined for this childish,cowardly act then baseball has lost its integrity. All you Braves fans, i'm on your side with this one.This message is from a Phillies fan. I hope Acuna Jr. is able to play tomorrow and continue to play well. He is a good young player.
S.W. Goss didn’t he even hit Hoskins?
He led the league in HBP last year......and he is NOT an exceptionally wild pitcher.
S.W. Goss You got my respect
Actually the Phillies fans watching the Phillies game on T.V. heard about this right away. John Kruk announced right away what had happened. John even said something has to be done before Urena hurts someone seriously.John made it clear that it was the very first pitch to Acuna Jr.
H.D.S. ---- Yes,he hit Hoskins, intentionally of course. Read my comment below or above what John Kruk said.
I have never, ever commented on anything on CZcams. My first ever. Jose Urena is now the Tonya Harding of the MLB. And Tonya Harding was barred from professional figure skating for life. It's not for me to say what larger punishment the MLB should levy against Urena. Urena's hatred for Acuna's talent just made himself a pariah in a game that he's worked so hard to be a major part of. He will never recover himself in the field of public opinion. My view of him is forever changed.
There will certainly be a lot of "Remember when..." from opposing teams announcers (and probably the opposing team's coaches and players, too) whenever Urena pitches again, that's for sure, but I'm not 100% convinced that he won't *ever* recover from this, Lauren Buono-Hudson. I think that depends a lot on how he pitches from here on out. If this was a "one and done" (don't hold your breath), then so be it. He made a mistake. If he keeps doing this crap, then... well, it's gonna be a problem, and like I said, I'm not holding my breath. I think he'll do this again some day.
I hope every pitcher he’s up against beams him! This is deeper than just this game...this is a spit in the face to all of baseball and all teams need to take notice.
It's a shame that Ureña only got suspended 5 games, all mlb did was give him an extra days rest
That was just plain DIRTY! After the game Urena said he was just pitching inside but there’s no way you miss by over a foot and nail the hottest hitter in the game who is kicking your butt game after game!!! So unprofessional!!
2:46
Scot Shot Basketball lmao
Thank u that made my day
You are my hero
Lmfaoo went right to the comments after I heard that
Bro, best comment of this video
Does anyone think Mattingly told him to do it? How was Urena not immediately ejected?
I find it funny that they throw their worse pitcher out there only for him to beam Acuna.... I have a feeling the coaching was indeed involved.
It couldn’t have been that look at what Realmuto (have no idea how to spell his name) and other players they were upset
Probably the glove drop is what did it.
I would be surprised if he did NOT order the hit. Snit should have gone after Mattingly.
What a scummy weak team. Dont mess with Acuna. Just stick to being the bottom feeders of the national league
The umpires deserve credit here for thinking about what would happen down the line. They considered: will the Braves want to get back at Urena or Realmuto? If we warn both teams without ejecting Urena, the Braves will be infuriated that they can't retaliate...so that's when they threw Urena out AND issued warnings. Great call.
Respect for Acuna for trying to play through the pain.
Freddie was watching then saw everyone in his clubhouse jump on the feild and said aw shiz here we go
bandits world exact what I was thinking. He didn’t want any smoke
@@jordanr371 yeah he didn't cause he's a nice guy (i'm not going against your opinion, i'm just adding to it)
The Braves should’ve signed Brian Snitker to a life time contract. Protects his players
Who else came here to see the salty comments?
Ultra Guy 45 I came here to make one
sniper 20657 nice
Me
I was at work when it happened and I had to hold my salt til I got home
The Dead Sea called. They more salt to offer. 🤣
Absolutely unacceptable and unprofessional. Hope this guy gets a quick recovery. Haven't heard word on injuries as I missed this game.
Snit said later,that's my kid.I'm going to protect him.Snit is the man!
Me: "Just when I thought John Lackey's first two pitches during the 1st inning wouldn't result in a fast ejection."
Urena: "Hold my drink."
If you think that was an accident I’ve got a bridge to sell you.
Acuna was a rising superstar arguably his potential is top player in the world.
you were right
He’s a 🐐
Go Braves ⚾️ This flashback has me mad all over again 😆
THIS IS WHY I LOVE BASEBALL MORE THAN ANOTHER SPORT....you can feel the emotions of the teammates, coaches and broadcasters everybody willing to stick up for their comrade .....One Word to describe what im seeing.....*Beautiful*.
I think there's more of that team first mentality in hockey, but yea baseball has it too.
Football basketball and hockey all have the same things...
yea, all team sports do
I'm sorry but what team sport doesn't do this lmaoo baseball the only one that allow people off the bench
mical2great Hockey allows fights to where people just get thrown in the Box for 5 minutes, cool down and then get back out there.
Good on Snitker leading the charge. Stick up for your rookie!
god i love the mlb. nba would never post clips like this
OKAYYYY that's cause the nba is actually kind of interesting.. mlb needs this kind of publicity
Baseball is shit sir
@@jahvon8083 so is your opinion
OKAYYYY probably cause the NBA is a basketball page lmao
Watch the 90's/2000's
When the benches clear, that means no one wants to fight.
Why wasn’t Don Mattingly ejected? He should’ve known why his pitcher was and he goes out there and points his finger at the umpire and he’s allowed to stay in, but Sniker who had every right to be mad gets tossed.
Mark Smith I'm pretty sure only the Marlins pitcher was ejected. Neither manager was ejected.
Because the Braves get fucked in perpetuity. By baseball, by luck and by bottom-dwelling teams.
Snitker did get ejected because Walt Weiss managed the rest of the game.
*Snitker*
Mark Smith because after his pitcher got tossed. Both teams received warning to both sides. And his relief pitcher hit another team again. The manager get tossed automatic.
Urena was lucky to make it out of Atlanta alive that night.... the suspension is nothing compared to what Braves fans would do to him
Man I’m a huge braves fan and I got upset
I don't think a player has been unanimously hated around the MLB since A-Rod, until now.
Love the way Ender Inciarte protected his teammate.
Braves fans, a Rockies fan sends his support to you. Ureña's act was absolutely stupid and I hope Acuña Jr is ready to play again soon.
I like the Rockies, so wishing good luck after yall leave Atlanta lol
Cubs fan here glad to see hes in line-up today, was crap yesterday.
EthMan Film Reviews see you tonight
the atlanta boy good game tonight, it was really fun to see two good teams play.
Stros fan here hope he’s gets a taste of his own medicine. dawgsfan tough loss for y’all #crushcity #neversettle
I now put Ureña’s face on a punching bag and went at if for countless hours
2:43 best part of this video.
I love the black guy soon after. YEA! haha
Snicker is awesome going off like that but the Marlins better thank their stars that Bobby Cox wasn’t still on the bench.
We all know why he did it. The kid has been a beast all year and has been hitting like a beast. Only in the mlb do you see that. Mlb un written rules I guess lol
Most chickenshit hbp I’ve seen in years. Not just b/c Acuna is one of the best rising stars in the league and was on an incredible hot streak but even more for how vital a piece he is for the Braves’ playoff push. Urena deserves a 10 game suspension at minimum.
Also, this is the first time in the live ball era that someone hit the opening batter of a game...live ball era: 1920 onward.
20 games! Screw him!
Adam Moreira that’s a lie,that one guy who tried to walk the first batter by throwing behind him had the batter jump back and he got ejected for the guy jumping
HighDefinition Skills He said the first time the first batter was HIT in the live ball era, not thrown at.
Adam Moreira I was at the game, man. You know how pissed off me and everyone at the game was?
I love how ender and peter moylan were the first players out of the dugout
Puros bravos desde chicali BC
As much as i have to route against the Braves since i am a Phillies fan cause we are chasing them in the NL East, this was just absolute BS with what Urena did. To drill a rising young player on the first pitch after the year he is having and what he has done since being put into the leadoff spot and all the damage he has done in this series. That was just horrible and bushleague. He needs to be suspended for the rest of the year. You don't drill people because of the damage they have done to u all series. Acuna has done nothing wrong execpt play hard and knock in runs and help his team win ballgames especially in a playoff race. He didn't do any batflipping if i recall. He doesn't show anyone up at all. He just minds his own business and does his job. And to see something like that happen to a young man like that is just horrendous and disgusting. The Braves good drafting is showing up on the field and are starting to get the results while the Marlins have nothing but a gutted team with a bunch of AAA ballplayers that's a lock to lose 100+ games all thanks to their bad management. That's terrible. Absolutely terrible with what Urena did to Acuna. Terrible.
Ureña’s hits Acuña with a 97.5-mph fastball the fastest pitch he has thrown to begin any of his career starts. ... ..😡
If that doesn't say intentional, I don't know what does
You can tell by his reaction Realmuto had no idea this was coming.
I'm newish to baseball and certainly not a pro. But what I do know is how to read people. I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt. I've watched this video over and over trying to see if Urena did it accidentally. I know that he's had trouble and he throws inside, but there is no way that was accidental. Not only was it a nasty pitch, but his attitude afterward showed his intent. What a shame. I understand Urena might be angry that his team was getting swept by the Braves. I understand that he might just be scared to pitch against Acuna and he didn't want him to get that home run off the first pitch. I understand Urena wants to win and make his own team proud and help them out. All of those emotions are valid, but the way he handled it was just inexcusable. He did himself and his team no favors.
Also, I love how Inciarte was ready to throw down. He was pissed. Snit was calmer walking out at first, but Inciarte was ready to rip someone apart.
This is what's expected from a pitcher who has a 11.25 era. And we gonna get him back in a week down in Miami
I don't like seeing the pain in this kids face he doesn't deserve it
Acuna displayed great sportsmanship here. Proud of him and glad he recovered.
Chad Fairchild said to Urena, “Number 62 of Miami, you’re OUTTA here!!!”
As a Marlin fan, I was never impressed by Urena to begin with. Even last year, he was a bad pitcher who simply got lucky, I felt like he couldn't pitch himself out of a wet paper bag if he tried. And that's honestly the least of his problems. He's a major headcase with *severe* problems.
That pitch was purely intentional. He doesn't accidently hit 14 batters in a season. If he did, he wouldn't even be in the majors right now. This clearly displays how much of a classless act he is, and if my memory serves me right, this wasn't the only time he threw a bitchfit. I recall in the minor leagues he got into a fight with his own team mate. If I'm wrong, feel free to correct me. But the point is, Jose Urena is poisonous to the Marlin ballclub and for MLB. The faster he gets run out of the club, the better.
I'd say I lost respect for Urena, but that implies I had any respect for him to begin with.
PS: I hope Acuna Jr recovers quickly. He didn't do anything to deserve any of this.
2:16 Ender Inciarte was ready to legitimately MURDER that Ureña
I was thinking shades of 1984 Braves Padres fight. I thought it was gonna be like that.
Brian Snitker is the best manager he learned from Bobby Cox to always have his players back
Just sucks as a team out of contention can impact another team in the run for it, I’m a cub fan, and I would be pissed if they did that to one of our players. No place for this in baseball.
May 3rd 2019. Redemption time. If all goes well he should be up in the rotation again.
Hopefully Acuña hits a 1st pitch homer
know this would make me watch more baseball
I feel so embarrassed how this player from my team could earn everyone hate😞 why is it Miami always
