Very sad. RIP Josh Hancock.
Wear gaudy colors, or avoid display. Lay a million eggs or give birth to one. The fittest shall survive, yet the unfit may live. Be like your ancestors or be different. We must repeat!
Wow, terrible terrible news.
Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:
Cincinnati Reds - 75, 76, 90

"This isn’t stats vs scouts - this is stats and scouts working together, building an organization that blends the best of both worlds. This is the blueprint for how a baseball organization should be run. And, whether the baseball men of the 20th century like it or not, this is where baseball is going."---Dave Cameron, U.S.S. Mariner
Kile now this. wow, very sad.
That's sad I remember seeing him play for the Reds.
Yeah wow, first Lidle now Hancock. In addition to the other death of the player I'm forgetting out in Colorado not too many years ago?
Very very sad. RIP Josh.
My thoughts and prayers go out to the Cards organization.
From the St. Louis Post-Dispatch
St. Louis Cardinals relief pitcher Josh Hancock was killed early Sunday in an accident on Highway 40 (Interstate 64), just west of Compton Avenue, authorities said.
Hancock's Ford Explorer slammed into the rear of a tow truck that was parked in the far left westbound lane shortly after 12:30 a.m. The tow truck driver, who was seated in the vehicle at the time, was unhurt.
He told police that his emergency lights were on, and that he honked his horn when he saw the Explorer approaching in his rear view mirror, but that the Exploer didn't slow down or swerve to avoid the collision.
At the time of the accident, the tow truck driver was assisting a motorist from an earlier accident.
Hancock, 29, was pronounced dead at the scene.
