This is heart-breaking. St. Louis Cardinals right-hander Josh Hancock was killed in a car accident early Sunday morning. The Cardinals’ scheduled game yesterday with the Cubs was canceled.
Out here in San Diego, at Petco Park, Hancock was honored with a moment of silence before the start of Sunday’s game against the Dodgers. For those of us who follow the Padres, Hancock’s untimely death brings back memories of Mike Darr, the talented young outfielder who was killed in a car crash during spring training 2002.
My thoughts are with Hancock’s family and friends…
