In 2013, Phillies pitcher Kyle Kendrick alerted the team that Roy Halladay might need help; that October, Doc checked into a drug rehabilitation center.

This Friday, ESPN will feature the life and career of late Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Roy Halladay on the 10-year anniversary of his perfect game against the Marlins — the 20th ever in Major League Baseball history.

And, while the documentary titled “Imperfect: The Roy Halladay Story” will highlight the right-hander’s on-the-field accomplishments, it will also take a close look at his off-the-field battles.
