Tragic news: Angels pitcher Nick Adenhart killed in hit-and-run

By 'Duk

Terrible news out of California this morning, where we've just learned that the Angels' Nick Adenhart was killed in an early morning hit-and-run accident in Fullerton on Thursday.

The news was first reported by TMZ and later confirmed by Yahoo! Sports baseball columnist Tim Brown.

Just 22 years old, Adenhart started for Los Angeles on Wednesday night and struck out five over six scoreless innings in a 6-4 loss to Oakland.

According to reports, Adenhart was driving home with three others in his Mitsubishi when a mini-van ran through a red light and hit Adenhart's car, causing it to crash into a light pole. Two passengers in the car died on the scene while another was pronounced dead at the hospital. The driver of the mini-van fled the scene, but was later apprehended by police.

This is the most tragic news you can imagine in the baseball world and our thoughts go out to Adenhart's family and the entire Angels' organization, which was already reeling from the death of a fan who was involved in a fight on Opening Day.

sad when you hear news from TMZ

I am supposing they are based down there near Hollywood, so they have their ears and eyes in all things bad that happen down there. TMZ actually makes sense in this situation.

I know but it's sad that you could see your family members death before hearing from an official first.

Reports out here on la sports talk are that the driver of the van was drunk. The topper is that they had 5 previous DUIs... Very said for all families involved.
