Cardinals Outfielder Oscar Taveras and Girlfriend Killed in Car Crash

St Louis Cardinals outfielder Oscar Taveras has died in a car crash less than a year after making his Major League Baseball debut,

The 22-year-old slugger's death was confirmed by his agent and newspapers in his native Dominican Republic, after he was involved in a car traffic accident on Sunday. 

Along with his girlfriend, identified as 18-year-old Edilia Arvelo, was also reportedly in the 2014 Chevy Camaro when it crashed and died as well.  

'He wasn't carrying documents at the time of the accident, but his body was identified by family members,' Col. Diego Pesqueira of the Metropolitan Transportation Agency said of Taveras.


May his soul rest in peace.
