    Can you summarize that? It would take like 15 mins to finish...

    This guy, Mike Coolbaugh, was a minor league player for his entire life pretty much. He always got hurt and such at bad times and never made it to the majors. He figured he'd be a hitting coach and whatnot and ended up coaching first base for some team called the Drillers. Tino Sanchez hit a line drive right into his neck and killed him. Sanchez hasn't played baseball, spoken about, or pretty much anything since the incident. Sanchez went back to Puerto Rico to watch his wife have his first child and hasn't communicated back since. That's really the sum of it.Sad story. I'm sure he was well appreciated for what he did and the way he was. The only good thing to possibly say about it, is he passed doing what he loved.

    That is really terrible, I can't believe it. RIP Coolbaugh.
