The benches cleared in the first inning of Wednesday's game at SunTrust Park, after Marlins starter Jose Ureña hit Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. with the first pitch of the night.

Acuna Jr. was hit in the left elbow and clearly in pain as he walked away from the plate. Braves manager Brian Snitker and players walked onto the field, angry over the pitch. Members from both teams began emptying out of the dugouts and a brawl quickly erupted. While players and coaches from both sides were arguing, Acuna Jr. squatted in the grass as a trainer tended to him.
