前老虎、道奇、教士和欧力士猛牛外野手Billy Bean过世
他在2016年也成为MLB副总裁
We are deeply saddened by the passing of our friend and colleague Billy Bean,
MLB’s Senior VP for Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion and Special Assistant to t
he Commissioner. Billy, who fought a heroic year-long battle with Acute Myeloi
d Leukemia, was 60.
Over the last 10 years, Billy worked passionately and tirelessly with MLB and
all 30 Clubs, focusing on player education, LGBTQ inclusion, and social justic
e initiatives to advance equality in the game for all.
Billy’s 10-year playing career included six Major League seasons with the Tig
ers, Dodgers, and Padres.
Commissioner Rob Manfred called Billy “one of the kindest and most respected
individuals I have ever known” and someone who “made Baseball a better insti
tution, both on and off the field.”
