The reaction among Atlanta Braves fans and the media seems to be pretty split on whether or not Brian Snitker should have bench Ronald Acuña after failing to run out what should have been an easy double.
After taking some time to rewatch the whole thing and listen to the post-game comments, it confirms my belief that Snit made the right decision.
Before I get too far into this, let me clearly state that I love Acuña and am beyond excited that he’s playing for my favorite team.
And there is no doubt that Snit loves Acuña as well and knows how vital he is to this team’s success.
