Ronald Acuña Jr. Got Married Hours Before Making MLB History

Before becoming the first player in MLB history to hit 30 home runs and steal 60 bases in a single season, Braves star Ronald Acuña Jr. had some more important business to take care of. 

Hours before Thursday night’s game against the Dodgers, Acuña and his fiancée, Maria Laborde, were married in an intimate ceremony at a chapel west of Los Angeles. 

The wedding came together in less than 24 hours after Acuña asked his business manager to find a venue in the Los Angeles area so that he and Laborde could get married during the Braves’ series against the Dodgers, according to ESPN’s Alden Gonzalez.
