Shocking news to wake up to this morning.

Joe Kennedy passed away yesterday at the age of twenty-eight, leaving behind a young family. It’s hard not to think back five years to the sad passing of Darryl Kile, another Major League pitcher who died suddenly with no warning. In Kile’s case, the death was related to a heart condition and it is believed that this may have been the cause of Kennedy’s death, although this is still to be confirmed. Very sad news.
