Nick Adenhart

I am sad today. Yesterday morning, Nick Adenhart, pitcher for the Angels and formerly of the Salt Lake Bees, died in surgery after being in a car accident Wednesday night involving a drunk driver.

Nick was a nice guy. Last year he was one of 6 Bees players who participated in "Day out with the Bees" for the Knothole Club. He was right there with the kids, talking to them and helping them throw the ball.


He had a lot of potential and a lot of life left to live; instead, a man driving with a suspended license due to a PREVIOUS DUI conviction chose to drive drunk again and killed three young people in the prime of their lives. Such a waste....



Good-bye Nick. Thank you for the memories. You will be missed....
