The baseball season has a few games under it's belt. Some pretty exciting things have happened already, the Braves hit eight homers in three games, the Yankees are 0-2, but today the season turned sad.
Nick Adenhart, 22 and a rookie Angels pitcher, died in a car accident early this morning. Two others also died in the accident. The first thing that comes to mind was Bobby Phills, a Hornets basketball player that died racing his car after practice one day, but this wasn't his fault, a minivan ran a red light and hit his car into a power pole.
The season will never be the same in the Angels clubhouse, or throughout major league baseball. It will be a sobering thought that it could happen to anyone at anytime. I expect and hope that the Angels will now dedicate the season to him.
Adenhart had the start Wednesday night, and had pitched well. Hopefully this means he was happy just before he died.
Let us all stop to appreciate the sanctity of life, and to miss a young professional who will miss most of his life through no fault of his own. We're sorry to see you go, but we all hope you are in a better place.
