It didn't look bad, seemed to get mostly his back with some of his arm. But he was acting like he was hurt bad though :ohdear:

he left the game; looked like it might have clipped his elbow but most of it got him in the back, well away from the spine though

However I did not like how he was holding his arm super stiffly

Every single year the Ivy League takes a break from fucking up the world through its various alumni to fuck up everyone's bracket instead.
obviously I love Acuña's dingers, but it's the willingness to take the walk when it's there that really gets me giddy about his future

Yeah our 20 year old rookie might be the most patient hitter on the team.
