leigh neuage - the rest of the story

a couple of days ago i posted this card

a 2003 bowman chrome of dodger prospect leigh neuage.  i noted that his final season in the minors was at age 19 even though he seemed to have good control and ratios.

after that post, i received an email from leigh's father letting me know that leigh had passed away in august of 2003.  his father has an online memorial at http://neuage.org/leigh.htm

and, while i use this site as a 'baseball card celebration of the dodgers...' it is clear that there was more to celebrate about neuage than that.

my condolences to the family.
