Cardinals’ Josh Hancock
Killed in Car Accident

St. Louis Cardinals’ reliever Josh Hancock was killed in an early Sunday car accident.

No details of the accident are available at this time.

Hancock, 29, had been a key member of the St. Louis bullpen during last season’s World Series championship run. He joined the Cardinals in 2006, having previously pitched for Boston, Philadelphia and Cincinnati.

As a result of Hancock’s death tonight’s scheduled game with the Chicago Cubs has been postponed. The Cardinals organization is expected to make a formal announcement this afternoon regarding Hancock.

My condolences to Hancock’s family and the St. Louis organization.
