UNCLE WALLY 'S OBIT.... R.I.P. Cory Fulton Lidle (March 22, 1972-October 11, 2006) |
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corey_Lidle
Cory Fulton Lidle (March 22, 1972-October 11, 2006)
was an American right-handed pitcher in Major League Baseball. He
played for seven different teams in his nine-season career, last
playing for the New York Yankees.[1] Only a few days after the team's
2006 season ended, the 34-year-old Lidle was killed when the personal
aircraft he was piloting crashed into a residential building in New
York City.[1]
Biography
Born in Hollywood, California to Doug and Lisa Lidle[2], Lidle was
related to engineer and inventor Robert Fulton.[3] His twin brother
Kevin Lidle played minor league baseball primarily as a catcher. They
attended South Hills High School in West Covina, California, graduating
in 1990, and were high school teammates of Jason Giambi. Lidle married
Melanie Varela on January 7, 1997; the pair had one son, Christopher
(born September 18, 2000).[3]
Baseball career
Lidle was signed in 1990 by the Minnesota Twins as an amateur free
agent. After his release in 1993, he was signed by the Milwaukee
Brewers. Lidle was then traded in 1996 to the New York Mets, and made
his Major League debut for the Mets on May 8, 1997. Lidle was one of
the few Major League Baseball players who was not a member of the MLB
Players Union. As a replacement player during the 1994 baseball strike,
he was not eligible to join the union. Lidle later appeared for the
Arizona Diamondbacks, Tampa Bay Devil Rays, Oakland Athletics, Toronto
Blue Jays, Cincinnati Reds, and Philadelphia Phillies. His best season
was 2001 when he went 13-6 with a 3.59 ERA (10th in the American
League) for Oakland, helping the Athletics win the wild card. In August
2002, Lidle was named American League pitcher of the month after
finishing the month with 1 earned run and an ERA of 0.20. His five wins
during that span helped the Oakland Athletics win 20 straight games.[4]
On July 30, 2006, Lidle was traded along with outfielder Bobby Abreu
from the Philadelphia Phillies to the New York Yankees for minor league
shortstop C.J. Henry, the Yankees' first round pick in the 2005 draft,
along with left-handed reliever Matt Smith, minor league catcher Jesus
Sanchez, and minor league right hander Carlos Monasterios.
Death
Main article: October 11, 2006 New York City plane crash
On October 11, 2006, a plane reportedly pending registration to[5] and
being flown by Lidle crashed into the Belaire Apartments complex on New
York City's Upper East Side.[6] His death makes him the second Yankees
player to die while flying his own plane, after Thurman Munson in 1979.
Lidle's co-pilot/flight instructor, Tyler Stanger, also died in the
crash. Twenty-one people were injured in the accident, half of them New
York City firefighters. Yankees owner George Steinbrenner described
Lidle's death as a "terrible and shocking tragedy that has stunned the
entire Yankees organization" and offered his condolences to Lidle's
wife and 6 year-old son. [1]
