Re: Former White Sox Pitcher Daniel Webb Killed in Accident
Only 28 years old and only reason he didn't pitch last year was because of TJ surgery. So he could've had a few more years in the majors.

For those who know West Tennessee, this happened somewhere in the Waverly area.

Re: Former White Sox Pitcher Daniel Webb Killed in Accident
I hate to hear about things like this. I'm assuming he wasn't wearing a helmet since it was a head injury but that may not be true. I just don't get why people don't think they need a helmet on an ATV.
I'll never forget the call I got from my mom saying that my dad had just been air lifted to SLU Hospital after fracturing his skull on an ATV down at the lake. He had been wearing a helmet all day and figured he didn't need one for the ride back to the lot and ended up rolling it on the paved road right by our lot and spent the next five days in an induced coma. I work right around the corner so every day that week I'd go over to the hospital to visit and seeing him there with all of the tubes and everything and them keeping him knocked out was the worst feeling I've ever had.
Ever since then I won't even sit on an ATV or motorcycle without a helmet.

I gotta admit, I never heard of the guy. It's a shame for it to happen to anyone, though.
