This is shocking and sad....RIP Oscar
Perspective is a funny thing. I'm in my mid-30's, my wife and I have a 14 month old daughter, and are just beginning our family. Now, as a new father, and (let's face it) an older man, I look at this totally different than when Daryl Kyle passed. I don't see a just a ball player whose life was cut tragically short before he reached his full playing potential. I now see a man whom, as far as I know, never got to experience the joy of fatherhood or, what I hope to be, the peace and grace of reveling in the golden years by watching your children's children play ball . I see parents that lost their son and daughter way too early.
My heart goes out to both of their families.
