Ronald Acuña Jr. Could Only Laugh After Marlins Position Player Struck Him Out With a Beautiful Pitch

It’s always fun when a position player has to come in and pitch. It could go really well for the guy or it could be a laughable disaster

Well, there were laughs at the end of Marlins catcher Jacob Stallings‘s inning of work Wednesday night against the Braves—but those chuckles by Ronald Acuña Jr. were out of disbelief after Stallings struck him out looking with a beautiful pitch.

Pretty good, right? 

The whole at-bat was spectacular: 

You gotta love baseball.
