Darryl Hamilton, who played for the Milwaukee Brewers, Texas Rangers, Colorado Rockies, San Francisco Giants, and New York Mets over 13 seasons with Major League Baseball, was found dead in Texas yesterday in an apparent murder-suicide, police say. The former outfielder, who retired in 2001, was found after a dispute in a Pearland home, the Houston Chronicle reports; he had suffered multiple gunshot wounds and Monica Jordan, 44 and the owner of the suburban Houston home, was also found dead there of apparently self-inflicted gunshot wounds. Their 14-month-old son was also in the home, unharmed, USA Today reports.
"All of us at Major League Baseball are shocked and saddened by this tragedy," commissioner Rob Manfred says in a statement, noting that the 50-year-old "followed a successful 13-year career on the field by assembling a multifaceted career in our game, working for MLB Advanced Media and in our Baseball Operations Department before moving on to MLB Network" as a broadcaster. Several of Hamilton's former teams are planning pre-game moments of silence to honor him, ESPN reports. (More murder suicide stories.)
