According to ESPN, the left-handed pitcher’s attorney Walin Batista spoke out to journalist Enrique Rojas about the matter late on Thursday night. Batista reported that while people at Pérez’s home are still trying to figure out exactly what happened, it appears as though the talented former Los Angeles Dodgers star accidentally fell down while working on a ladder.
Batista reported to the sports media outlet (below):
Just awful.
The 44-year-old Dominican had spent more than 10 years in the Major Leagues after first making his debut in 1998 with the Atlanta Braves. After several seasons, he was traded to the Dodgers, where he enjoyed the peak of his career success, including earning an All-Star Game selection. In 2002 with Los Angeles, he infamously pitched a shutout while also hitting a home run in a game (below):
He later finished his career pitching for the Kansas City Royals and Washington Nationals.
All told, he had a 73-82 record with a 4.46 ERA in more than 1,300 career innings in the big leagues — with his career being an impressive, long-lasting feat.
