MIAMI (CBSMiami) – It’s going to be an emotional day for the Miami Marlins and for many around baseball.
Former Miami pitcher Jose Fernandez will be on the minds of his family and countless ballplayers on Monday as they recognize the one-year anniversary of his tragic passing.
One year ago on September 25th, Fernandez and friends Eduardo Rivero and Emilio Macias died after his boat, the Kaught Looking, crashed into a jetty off Miami Beach.
Monday morning Fernandez’s mother and members of his family went back to the jetty to spray messages of love on the rocks and release balloons into the sky.
