Furcal has been arrested twice before, both during his Braves career. One incident occurred his rookie year in 2000 and the other was in 2004.
The shortstop was listed on the Baseball Hall of Fame’s induction ballot in 2020 and received zero votes, taking the possibility away from him in the future.
More to come.
