Overview
- Jarred Kelenic failed to hustle on a long fly ball during Saturday's game, resulting in an out at second base after a replay review.
- Manager Brian Snitker dismissed questions about disciplining Kelenic, saying, 'Was I supposed to?' and later claimed he had not seen the play until the next morning.
- Ronald Acuña Jr. publicly criticized Snitker in a social media post, suggesting he would have been benched for a similar mistake, referencing his 2019 removal for not hustling.
- Acuña deleted the post within an hour, and Snitker stated he had not spoken to Acuña about the criticism.
- Kelenic personally apologized to Snitker for the incident, while tensions over consistent discipline and team culture linger in the Braves' clubhouse.
