As a Mariner fan, I mainly know of LimaTime! from his appearances on the Jim Rome radio show.
He always made me want to watch his next start, no matter who he was with at the time. He loved baseball. Wasn’t he playing in an independent league a few years ago?
Real sad part---he had just spent the weekend with his son, both at the baseball academy he set up in southern California. His son's last memory of father will be baseball together, and that's sometimes a lot more than many sons get to have of their fathers.
