Acuna drilled with 93 mph fastball

Acuna about to have his arm amputated

 

[thewupk]

Acuna's pain tolerance has to be the lowest I've ever seen

 

[Five]

Acuna about to have his arm amputated

Lol, just cut the ****ing thing off already.

 

[msstate7]

If Acuna survives, he will attempt to steal 2b

 

[Ozzie Swanson]

So sick of seeing Ronald get drilled with pitches up and in.

 

[Enscheff]

Umm, I'm sure getting hit with a pitch hurts, but come on man. It hit you in the shoulder.

 

[mfree80]

Not sure I am buying that Acuna getting hit as often as he does is just bad luck.

 

[thewupk]

All-world talent. zero pain tolerance

 

[mossy]

Next you guys will be blaming Ronald for getting drilled.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

where did that hit Ronnie. I missed that.

 

[Enscheff]

It hit him in the shoulder...very odd place to almost die.

 

[mossy]

where did that hit Ronnie. I missed that.

Appears to be left shoulder.

 

[Tapate50]

Shoulder shot.

I’m sure it hurt but he did hit one into oblivion last game.

Kinda hard to show that as an accident

Generally I agree with you. I have been on this very board picking on Ronald about this. But he got hit right where I got hit in college. For me it missed the meat and hit my bone and broke it. I was done for a while. If it hit the muscle he’ll be fine, if it hit the bone it could be bad. Weird place to get hit.

Fun fact, I was hit by Billy Wagner. He was a starting pitcher at Ferrum College and they were in our conference. Hurt like a mf’er

 

[jsebe10]

God damn walking double play dude. Drop his ass outta the fckn 3 hole..especially now since Acuna‘s arm got blown off by an RPG.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

yeah.. sort of odd to see a guy come out from a shoulder hit. not little bones up there.

 

[Ozzie Swanson]

Looked like maybe back of shoulder? Most likely option is Ronald is milking it for all it’s worth, but it could’ve hit him directly on the scapula or another bone in that area.

 

[mfree80]

High on his shoulder. Very close to his neck.

Despite the cracks about his pain tolerance.
