Probably the most emotional tribute ever done, and everything went right. Players wearing number 16 and Fernandez's name on their jersey's, little things like skipping over the baseline, the starting 8 lineup on the mound pregame, take me out to the ball game played as Taps on a bugle, pep talk on the mound, Mets players showing their respect, and Dee Gordon. What can you say about that? Stunning. Beautiful. Fitting. Classic. Appropriate. PERFECT in every sense of the word. R.I.P. Jose, your team was with you, and you with them.
great comment man it was truly a beautiful game and ceremony even though it was under such a sad circumstance poor families having to deal with this loss condolences to Jose's family as well as the other 2 victims in this horrific accident
You don't have to be a Miami fan to be extremely moved and beyond sad by everything that has occurred with this unbelievable tragedy. Living in the Boca area I'm from Colorado and a lifetime anything Denver fan, but I have nothing but respect for sports communities like Miami, Jose Fernandez you were a true legend, you will never be forgotten!! I can't believe this, too young to die, he was only 2 years older than me, something like this shows how quickly life can end, and how much we should appreciate it when we still have the chance!!
This Giants fan was devastated to hear the news. I can't imagine what his family and team are going through still. The tribute was magnificent. I'm so sorry he left us so soon.
Condolences from minnesota. I dont even know what to say. The death of this superstar player and an even better person is just beyond sad. just crazy. i don't even know how these marlins players can even play baseball with this tragic event constantly on their mind. Hey, people die every day but when a promising young man dies too early and his parents have to bury him, it just breaks your heart.
wow! the true emotion of that game is indescribable. I was happy to see the compassion and love 1 person brought to not only his teammates but everyone in baseball. a young life cut short. may he rest in peace jf16
They had his body in a church today where people could go and touch his casket/say a prayer. I wanted to go, but I'd get too emotional.. Rest easy JF16
☝☝☝☝ 16 allways rememberd buddy that number is yours and we will never change it god knows what you couldve accokplished if you were still alive i wanted to see you become halloffamer
Jokerxo obviously you need nothing about Jose. He was Cuban. Would've voted for Trump. democrat party is turning socialist. He risked his life fleeting that shit.
