I don't think Acuna's a showboater, even if he occasionally struts a little. He was very well-behaved during the HR Derby and he had a chance to showboat and didn't.
If showboating and slow trotting are such problems, they should just make it where you don't have to run the bases if you hit a HR. Would speed the game up just a little, too.
I don't care if he showboats. He can moon the crowd while running the bases for all I care. I just think at times the showboating can appear to look like he doesn't hustle. From what I've seen he seems to love the game and be willing to make the necessary adjustments to be successful.
Needs to work on his crossover.
If he showboats like Edmunds (sp.), I will really be pissed off.
Now if played like Rose or I hate to say Dickstra (you know who I am talking about) this thread would be different.
From Braves' Facebook page, video comments on the video titled "Acuna already in midseason form" (hits a rocket rbi single).
