Baseball Almanac Top Quote

"He was a rugged-looking guy who had some good years in the majors and could flat-out hit. He and I became friendly in Montreal in 1992, when I was bench coach under Felipe Alou. One night after a game in Philadelphia, Ivan and our hitting coach Jay Ward, were having a couple beers in Jay's hotel room. They invited me to join them, and we sat and talked baseball. After a while, Ivan stood up and said, 'Guys, I gotta go.' I liked Ivan and enjoyed talking hitting with him, so I said,'Hey, man, hang around a bit longer, why don't you.' He smiled and said, 'Got to go. I have my wife on the sixth floor and my girlfriend on the fourth floor.'" - Author Kevin Kennedy in Twice Around the Bases: The Thinking Fan's Inside Look at Baseball (It Books Publishing, 07/03/2006, Page 56)

Police are still investigating the murder of former Major Leaguer Ivan Calderón, who was shot in the back on Dec. 27 in his hometown of Loíza, Puerto Rico. According to police reports, Calderon was shot on Dec. 27, 2003 around 8 p.m. at "El Trompo" bar in Loiza, a few blocks from the El Cabo community where he owned a home.
