The Chicago Cubs used their 19th-round pick in the 2017 MLB Draft to select Chris Singleton, the Charleston Southern outfielder whose mother was one the victims in the Charleston, S.C. mass killings at Emanuel African Methodist Church in 2015.

The selection came almost two years to the day of the tragedy that saw nine people killed and three wounded by a white supremacist.

Singleton’s mom, Sharona Coleman Singleton was one of those killed on June 17, 2015.
