Nick Adenhart: A Tribute

Nick Adenhart is happy.

The casual fan thinks of him just as a mere adequate pitching prospect who met a tragic death along with two of his fellow buddies in the early morning on April 9.

But Nick is way more than that.

"Nick Adenhart should be here celebrating with us, but the Good Lord took him...Now, we're just celebrating in his name. He's a very important part of the team. We're playing hard for him. Trust me, he's here in spirit and love. We're going to try to bring his ring back home for him and give it to his parents," says Angels center fielder and eight-time Gold Glove Award winner Torii Hunter.

For the Angels, life has gone on as if Adenhart was still there.
