Some sad news to report out of Arizona. Gabrielle Schoeneweis, wife of Diamondbacks reliever Scott Schoeneweis, was found dead at the couple's home in Fountain Hills, Arizona on Wednesday afternoon. The Arizona Republic reports that the the Schoeneweis' 14-year old daughter called police upon finding her mother on the floor of her parents' bedroom. When officers arrived on the scene Mrs. Schoeneweis was unresponsive and she was pronounced dead. There is no cause of death at this point.
The Diamondbacks played a doubleheader Wednesday in Miami against the Marlins, and many of the Arizona players wore Schoeneweis' number on their hats. Schoeneweis is on his way back to Arizona. The couple has four children. Our deepest condolences go out to them and the rest of the Schoeneweis family.
