Reports claim Jose Ureña’s cowardly actions and why Ronald Acuña’s injury is a call for longer suspensions.
It appears that the MLB is asking for a call of action:
Isn’t it time we started calling pitchers who do what Ureña did? When a pitch buries a baseball into a hitter because the hitter had the audacity to be great is uncalled for.
SNY color analyst Keith Hernandez alluded to this when he tried to rationalize what Ureña pitch that hit Acuna Jr:
They’re killing you, you’ve lost three games, he’s hit three home runs. You’ve got to hit him. I’m sorry. People are not gonna like that. You’ve got to hit him, knock him down. I mean, seriously knock him down if you don’t hit him.
What do you think about what Marlins manager Don Mattingly had to say for José Ureña actions?
