Taveras' death 'hurts' - Yost

Wednesday, October 29 2014 by SNTV
  • Intro:

    Reaction from Kansas City Royals manager Ned Yost and San Francisco Giants pitcher Jake Peavy following the death of St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Oscar Taveras after a car accident on Sunday.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Ned Yost, Kansas City Royals manager

    "You know this, this hurts. This hurts everybody. A kid this young, for something like this to happen. I think we were all shocked when we heard about it, and we're still shocked. And then you look back on your club, and what if this happened to one of your young players on your club? And you just know what the (St. Louis) Cardinals are going through."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Jake Peavy, San Francisco Giants pitcher

    "I just want to send out our deepest condolences to the Taveras family. Obviously, that was really hard to hear, and all the jubilation, and the excitement and the joy that we were in, that was really tough to hear that news. Devastated, obviously. Didn't know him, but obviously we're a fraternity. When you meet somebody who does what you do, and you get the news obviously we got, so it's beyond heartbreaking when you don't even know him. Spoke to a couple guys who played with him and sent out our regards. But, yeah, just want to make this clear that we are obviously thinking about the St. Louis Cardinals and the Taveras family and our MLB (Major League Baseball) family."
