Jose Fernandez

Boy, of boy, a tragic, tragic story out of Miami today. Jose Fernandez came to the United States from Cuba eight years ago, on his fourth try. He became a professional baseball pitcher with the Miami Marlins, won the National League rookie-of-the-year award in 2013, became an all-star and won 16 games this year. Fernandez was killed along with two friends in a motorboat accident early this morning in the waters off Miami Beach. Jose Fernandez was only 24 years old.
