Overview
- In the third inning at loanDepot park, Marlins reliever Ryan Gusto hit Ronald Acuña Jr.'s left arm guard with a 93.3 mph sinker one pitch after Matt Olson's two-run homer.
- Benches and bullpens emptied without any physical confrontations, and umpires issued warnings to both teams for the remainder of the game.
- Braves manager Brian Snitker protested the mutual warnings and was ejected, marking the 22nd ejection of his managerial career.
- Acuña remained in the game as the designated hitter and later scored on Ozzie Albies' three-run home run.
- Marlins analyst Tommy Hutton drew attention for urging on air that Acuña "charge" the pitcher, and Miami has now hit Acuña nine times in his career, the most by any opponent.
