Saturday's game between the Atlanta Braves and Washington Nationals took a turn during the top of the seventh inning that caused all at Nationals Park to hold their breath.
Fox Sports South's Kelsey Wingert reported the scene when Braves utility man Charlie Culberson, in as a pinch hitter for pitcher Mike Foltynewicz, was struck in the face by Fernando Rodney's fastball:
Kelsey WingertCharlie squared to bunt. The bat never touched the ball. The pitch hit Charlie in the face. They called it a strike. Snitker is furious and was ejected from game screaming, “shame on you” to the home plate umpire.
