Marlins standout pitcher Jose Fernandez has passed away in a boating accident. Authorities found a 30-foot boat overturned that had crashed into rocks off Miami Beach around 3 am EST, and three people were found dead according to multiple reports.
Cubs outfielder Dexter Fowler tweeted his sadness over news of Fernandez's passing on Sunday morning. "At a loss of words...Rest in peace Jose Fernandez," Fowler tweeted. "Praying for your family." Fernandez was only 24-years old and prayers out to his family and everyone in the Marlins organization. Today's game against the Atlanta Braves has been canceled.
