Penn State Baseball: Braden Halladay plans to honor commitment after getting drafted

The last two years haven’t been easy for the family of legendary Major League Baseball pitcher, Roy Halladay. After getting involved in a horrific plane accident, Halladay suddenly passed away back in November of 2017. Knowing how much he meant to the world of baseball, the sports community as a whole came together and acknowledged the impact Roy Halladay had on the game.

Since the unfortunate accident, both of Halladay’s former pro teams haven’t forgotten about their late legend. Any chance the Philadelphia Phillies or the Toronto Blue Jays get, they find a way to honor “Doc” Halladay.
