Bodega Baseball: Marcell Ozuna can go scratch

  • June 3, 2021

Atlanta Braves outfielder Marcell Ozuna is facing a long suspension after being arrested on domestic abuse charges.

Police responded to his Atlanta suburb home, hearing screaming from inside the house. They witnessed Ozuna grab his wife, Genesis by the neck and throw her against the wall. He also hit her with his cast on his left hand. He was released on $20K bail on Monday.

This is not the first incident between Ozuna and his wife. Last year, Genesis was arrested on domestic violence charges in Miami. The couple is said to be in the middle of divorcing.
