Braves' Marcell Ozuna Granted $20K Bond After Arrest on Domestic Violence Charges

Atlanta Braves outfielder Marcell Ozuna was granted a $20,000 bond Monday after being charged with aggravated assault by strangulation and battery against his wife, Genesis, per the Associated Press (via ESPN.com).

Ozuna was arrested Saturday after Sandy Springs officers said they witnessed him "choke his wife, throw her against a wall and strike her with the cast on his broken fingers," per Alexis Stevens of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

The 30-year-old broke two fingers during a game against the Boston Red Sox last week and was on the Braves' injured list.
