    Could there be a more painful death?

    Christ.

    Quite ironic that one of baseball's all-time wussies worked in Iraq in one of the most dangerous jobs.

    RIP Chris, but your nickname - "The Tinman" remains one of the best ever.

    Maybe he was saving his pain threshold for this incident.

    There was a big story on Brown around the All-Star break two years ago.

    LA Times had this story, with much more detail and background...

    So apparently the well-worn "strained eyelid" story is urban legend?

    Brown was a talent, when he played. Nice guy, away from the field too. Bowa was being Bowa when he talked about the eye story and unfortunately, it stuck. RIP Chris.
