The baseball community is mourning the loss of legendary Blue Jays pitcher Roy Halladay, who died on Tuesday after crashing his personal plane in the Gulf of Mexico. Roy Halladay was an eight-time all-star in his stellar career with the Blue Jays and Phillies. The right-hander, who becomes eligible for the Baseball Hall of Fame next year, was drafted 17th overall by the Blue Jays in 1995. “One of the best to ever do it,” former Blue Jays teammate Vernon Wells tweeted. Officials investigate the site of Roy Halladay's plane crash in the Gulf of Mexico, near Holiday, Fla., Tuesday.
