Someone just told me that this player was killed by a foul ball that struck him on the side of his head. Did anybody see the incident?

Rochy, I think you're talking about this guy. His name was Mike Coolbaugh and it happened in Little Rock, Arkansas.

He used to play in Korea. Maybe that's what you heard?

Clifford Brumbaugh is fine. Saw him on TV yesterday.

Richard:

I looked all over Yahoo and Google and found the links to the other guy. I suppose that I just had to inquire on Dave's to see for sure whether or not one of Delaware's most famous ballplayers was alive.

Dude, I'm tipping a Samuel Adam's Lager in honor of this very underrated infielder right now. My next one will be in honor of you.

Cheers!
