Shocked, saddened, distraught. These are all emotions going through Major League pitcher
Josh Hamilton’s mind after a devastating accident took place during a recent game. A fan, Shannon Stone, fell to his death while attempting to catch a baseball tossed towards him by Hamilton. And yet, making sense of this horrible tragedy is not the only demon Hamilton has had to deal with. Earlier in his career, after suffering a car crash which left him on the bench, Hamilton suffered from
alcohol and drug addiction. It took hitting rock bottom for Hamilton to work his way towards alcohol and drug addiction
recovery and back to the Major League. In an inspirational comeback, Hamilton made it back into the majors and even won the 2010 American League MVP award.
