LOL. Mattingly thinks if his pitcher throws at Acuna with 1st pitch of the game he won't get ejected. I liked Mattingly as a player but as a manager….he's a joke.
This announcer is a total idiot, talking about not agreeing with the ejection of Lopez….a child could see that this was deliberate. Behavior like this should not be tolerated…these guys are supposed to be professionals aren't they??
So how many times does Acuna have to get hit before the dumbass umpire immediately ejects the pitcher?!! These idiot umpires are the number one reason I no longer watch MLB.
I wish the announcers would take the time to real the rules. The umpires are REQUIRED to conference before issuing warnings and/or ejections, THAT'S why they got together and discussed it – they're REQUIRED to. Stop being idiots and trying to fire up the Marlins fans, that's not helping any damned thing. And that wasn't "pitching inside", he threw at Acuna. Pitching inside is when it's close. The man got hit in the upper arm – middle of the body. That's not "pitching inside", that's "get off the plate or get hit" and that's bullshit. Marlins put a jerk pitcher on the mound and then get pissy when he gets ejected? Hey, here's a thought: Tell your pitcher to stop throwing at people like they own the freaking plate or something.
I respect Glavine but he is wrong here. At the same time; Acuna kind of brings it on himself and I am a Braves fan. Now Acuna has gotten better. But if this is the third AB of the game and the pitcher was sitting on 80 pitches; it may not warrant an ejection. This was a replay of the Urena incident all over again. You do not go that far inside on the first pitch of the game.
I’m a braves fan but the rebuttal in Pablo Lopez’s next start against the Braves is insane. 10 k’s to start the game and breaks the record for that statistic.

The pitcher was smirking
The announcer defending the whining Marlins can go back to his trailer park.
Yep, the ump should’ve tossed Lopez right then and there. Can’t help but wonder if they don’t have a bounty on Acuna’s head!

as a Braves fan, ejecting Lopez here was so extra… 😭
Oh my God Mattingly just split his pants
I do he should be ejected his dumb ass they can’t even win the playoffs
Snitker has always seemed like a very calm manager, but when he gets mad he get PISSED
That last announcer's point was nonsensical — what the hell is wrong with discussing the situation among the entire crew before deciding what to do?!
if you didn’t do it right away out of the heat of the moment, then, why would you do it after having a levelheaded discussion…dumbest logic ever

Pathetic franchise.
Mattingly just joins in with his thug team 😅

If anyone would notice, that clearly was not intentional.
