Former MLB shortstop Rafael Furcal was arrested in South Florida on Wednesday after turning himself in at Broward County jail for charges of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and throwing a missile into a dwelling, with the term “missile” referring to a stone or hard substance capable of causing harm. Furcal, a 14-season veteran who played for teams like the Atlanta Braves and St. Louis Cardinals, was quickly released on bond following his arrest. He is known for his achievements, including winning Rookie of the Year in 2000 and being part of the Cardinals’ 2011 World Series-winning team.
