Earlier this week, Acuna called out Braves manager Brian Snitker for his handling of an incident where outfielder Jarred Kelenic didn't hustle on a ball hit to the outfield. Kelenic presumed the ball was leaving the park for a home run, but was thrown out at second base when it stayed in play as he rushed in an attempt to salvage a double.

Days after Acuña’s since-deleted post on X that criticized manager Brian Snitker over his handling of outfielder Jarred Kelenic, ex-MLBer Jeff Francoeur spoke on the topic on 680 The Fan on Tuesday about the situation and went as far as to say Acuña “buriedz a teammate.”

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. accused manager Brian Snitker of employing a double standard on Sunday in regards to treating his players differently.
