Reports said many gathered to look at the debris. I wonder how many of them were lawyers wanting to get the case.

He is dead, it has been confirmed! My best friend lives in NY and her DH is on the police force. He is there at the scene and he just called her to tell her the sad news and that he knows Corey is dead.
Sad...

Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle reportedly was one of at least two people killed when a plane he was piloting slammed into a high-rise residential building on the Upper East Side shortly before 3 p.m., officials said.
The police department confirmed that two people were killed, and there were no immediate reports of injuries when the four-seater plane crashed into the 50-story luxury apartment building.

How strange is fate. Had the Yanks beaten Detroit, he would have been with the team instead of flying his plane.
There are many stories, but I remember one in particular. Two guys didn't make it for their flight because a radiator hose broke on the way to the airport. Yes, everyone was lost on that flight.
God rest the souls of those departed today. May their families receive comfort.

Lidle dies as plane crashes into Manhattan high-riseESPN.com news services
NEW YORK -- A small plane piloted by New York Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle crashed into a 50-story condominium tower Wednesday on Manhattan's Upper East Side, raining flaming debris onto the sidewalks below and rattling New Yorkers' nerves five years after the Sept. 11 attack.
Lidle died in the crash.
The twin-engine plane came through a hazy, cloudy sky and hit the 20th floor of The Belaire -- a red-brick tower overlooking the East River, about five miles from the World Trade Center -- with a loud bang, touching off a raging fire that cast a pillar of black smoke over the city and sent flames shooting from four windows on two adjoining floors.
Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

Oh man. He just called in on the Mike and the MadDog show on Monday to defend some remarks he made that he said were misinterpreted. To say they were disrespectful to him would be an understatement.
You just never know.

In response former teammate Arthur Rhodes said, "He is a scab. When he started, he would go 5 1/3 innings and (the bullpen) would have to win the game for him. The only thing Cory Lidle wants to do is fly around in his airplane and gamble. He doesn't have a work ethic. After every start, he didn't run or lift weights. He would sit in the clubhouse and eat ice cream. ... He shouldn't say that, he shouldn't say anything like that because he is a scab. He crossed the line when guys like me, Flash (Tom Gordon) and (Mike) Lieberthal were playing. He is a replacement player."
