So sad ..That sucks

Yordano's ego was many times at a more highly-elevated level than his pitching skills, but the young man still had some awesome skills from 60'6" from home plate.

Rest in peace, Yordano.

I am still in shock over this. Was borderline tears all day at work today. Rip Yordi

RIP Ace Ventura. Watching him throw 100 effortless was an amazing experience.

Damn ... both soooo young :/.
