About | CHILLICOTHE, Ohio - A minor league baseball player was killed in a car accident just hours after being released by the Chillicothe Paints of the independent Frontier League. Steve Martin's car crossed the center line and veered off a county road, then struck a tree and guardrail and overturned about 2 a.m. Thursday, according to a sheriff's report. The 24-year-old outfielder died about 90 minutes later at Adena Regional Medical Center in this southern Ohio city. Speed and alcohol appear to be factors in the crash, the report said. |
