So sad, it seems as if someone dies every weekend. This one hits fans of baseball very hard, as Yordano Ventura is the latest victim. The young man was a standout for the Kansas City Royals, a team which appeared in the World Series of 2014 and 2015, winning the latter.
Yordano Ventura, meanwhile, has built an amazing fan base that is now in mourning. When any person dies, it is a sad situation, because the end of life is sobering. But, when that person is famous, fans have invested a lot into them, so it feels like losing family, at times.
A sad situation is made somewhat better when it is shown how much people loved and respected they were. This is what Yordano Ventura, and also Andy Marte, are receiving from the fans. They have taken to Twitter, even putting together the beautiful photo above, in his memory.
