    The autopsy on former baseball player Jose Lima was completed Tuesday in Los Angeles, but official results will not be disclosed until early next week, a family source told ESPNdeportes.com.

    The initial theory about a massive heart attack is still in place as the cause of death, said the source. A routine police investigation also dismissed any foul play and found no evidence of drugs in Lima's residence or vehicle.

    Lima's body was delivered to the family and would be transported to New York on Tuesday night, said the source. Funeral services, open to the public, will be held at the Rivera Funeral Home in Flushing, N.Y., on Thursday, only a few blocks away from Citi Field. Doors will open at 10 a.m. ET.
