Braves Star Ronald Acuña Jr. Gets Married, Then Makes MLB History Hours Later: ‘Incredibly Special Day’

That’s a pretty wild day,” teammate Michael Harris II joked after the game, according to The Associated Press.

The athlete said he’d been planning the private wedding ceremony for weeks now, as his wife Maria, 23, was facing a visa restriction that would’ve sent her home to Venezuela for three months.

The couple met four years ago and got engaged in January, according to ESPN. They share two sons together: Ronald Daniel, 2, and Jamall, 11 months. After the wedding earlier in the day, the family cheered on the star from the stands.
