Coors Field provided a hint of drama last night as three fans made it onto the park and made physical contact with Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr.
The clip was shared on the ‘awful announcing’ X (twitter) page with Bally Sports announcers Peter Moylan and Brandon Gaudin left gobsmacked.
The Braves went down 8-5 to the San Francisco Giants but the Braves still lead the ML East with a handsome margin, 85-35. They are a dead certainty to finish top ahead of the second place Phillies.
But the main talking point will be how the security allowed three random fans to get within touching distance of the Venezuelan super star.
Bizarre scene at Coors Field, as three fans got on the field and actually made contact with Ronald Acuña Jr. Fortunately, nobody was hurt.
But Bally Sports South announcers Brandon Gaudin and Peter Moylan were understandably frustrated.

The 4-x All-Star looked bemused, then irate as the game was temporarily halted.
