The Media Drop

As news has come out that New York Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle was killed in an accident where his plane crashed into a building on the Upper East Side of New York City, I wanted to send some kudos to baseball-reference.com for pulling the advertisements off of Lidle’s profile page, which is surely getting a ton of traffic right now. Unfortunately, they’d probably received a number of requests to put ads up, and it looks like that wasn’t very tasteful to be doing at this time.
