Cory Lidle

Cory Lidle's death was shocking and sad.

MLB.com has a page devoted to the Lidle with links to a story about the accident, his Phillies teammates, the Yankees reaction, and a colum by mlb.com writer Mychael Urban about his friend.

MILB.com has a story about Lidle, his time in the minors, reaction from his managers, and this from a former Timber Rattler front office member:

"He was just a great, great guy," said Mike Birling, Lidle's general manager with the Durham Bulls. "He understood not only the baseball side of it, but how important fans are and how important it is to be a part of Minor League community."

In the story, you will learn that Lidle played part of the 1994 season in Beloit as a member of the Brewer organization.
