Atlanta Braves phenom Ronald Acuña Jr. admired a long fly ball he hit to right-center field before realizing that it wouldn't go out of the park. Manager Brian Snitker wasn't so forgiving after watching one of baseball's brightest stars settle for a single, pulling the 21-year-old from a critical 5-3 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday. After driving the ball against starter Tony Gonsolin in the third inning, Acuña held his bat high and walked six steps before starting a slow jog to first.
