Listening to the Rangers Pre-game live ...
They apparently have no additional info on what caused the death.
I suspect a cerebral hemorrhage or something like it. A good friend of mine, whom I had known since we were both about 7, was killed by one when he was 25. I learned of it when my father called me while I was doing Officers’ Basic Training at Ft. Lee, VA in 1967.
Prayers up.
Sounds like Darryl Kile’s death all over again. It must be especially hard on teammate Albert Pujols as for him it really is deja vu. Albert was a 2nd year player and Kile’s Cardinal teammate when Kile died unexpectedly at age 33.
Very sad. Sympathies and prayers to his family and friends, the Angels organization, and the Major League Baseball community.
The circumstances remind me of Darryl Kile.
I wonder if the Angels will play with Skaggs’s jersey in their dugout, like they did for Nick Adenhart when he did.
