We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Angels Hall of Famer Garret Anderson.
Garret will forever hold a special place in the hearts of Angels fans for his professionalism, class, and loyalty throughout his career and beyond.
Anderson went on to play for the Braves and Dodgers, but he was inducted into the Angels’ Hall of Fame in 2016.
On X (formerly Twitter), thousands of tributes poured in from friends, teammates, and a legion of adoring fans:
“I really enjoyed getting to know GA over the years, heartbreaking to hear, love and prayers to the entire Anderson family,” one user wrote.
“Man, that hurts. Angels legend and I hope and pray for his family. Life is so precious and you never know when your number will be called,” another added.
“Anderson is Angels franchise leader in games, hits, runs, RBIs and more. Good man who was respected by all. Heart attack is suspected,” baseball journalist Jon Heyman chimed in.
No cause of death has been revealed, and reports indicate only that Anderson suffered some sort of “medical emergency.”
However, Heyman is not the first to suggest that Garret may have had a heart attack.
Our thoughts are with his loved ones during this enormously difficult time.
