Dodgers Pitcher Alex Vesia and Wife Announce Tragic Loss of Infant Daughter
Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Alex Vesia and his wife, Kayla, shared heartbreaking news about the death of their infant daughter, Sterling Sol Vesia. The couple posted a joint message on Instagram revealing their daughter passed away on October 26.
“Our little angel, we love you forever and you’re with us always. Our beautiful daughter went to heaven Sunday, October 26th. There are no words to describe the pain we’re going through, but we hold her in our hearts and cherish every moment we had with her.”
The 29-year-old relief pitcher had been absent from the Dodgers’ World Series roster due to what the team referred to as a personal leave.
“Thank you to the Dodgers for their understanding and support during this time. Our baseball family showed up for us, and we wouldn’t be able to do this without them. Thank you Dodger Nation, Blue Jays organization, and all baseball fans for your love and support. We have seen all your messages, comments, and posts — they’ve brought us great comfort.”
“Lastly, we’d like to thank Cedars-Sinai and all the medical staff who helped Kayla and Sterling. Every person we met was truly incredible.”
The couple, who announced their pregnancy in April, did not disclose the cause of death in their post.
