This was erie. I listened intently for a few minutes until I was sure it was just a tragic accident.
Here is a snippet from the WaPo:
===========================================
Lidle, 34, was an experienced pitcher who had played for both New York teams. He arrived in the major leagues in 1997 with the Mets and pitched the latter part of this season with the Yankees. He had acquired his pilot's license within the past year; it is not known whether Lidle or the unidentified instructor was at the controls of the airplane at the time of the accident.
Yankees management, including owner George Steinbrenner, confirmed that Lidle died in the crash. Lidle's passport was found on the street below, along with two bodies, authorities report.
============================================
Of course, I await intently the Conspiracy Theorists who will report the crash not an accident, and the passport placed in the street below to cement the idea that Lidle was aboard the plane. But wait, they have the body. Too bad for the fevered swamp that passes for a brain in these people.
I'm just saying....
