Brad Halsey Obituary
Police in Comal County said an investigation was still ongoing into Friday's accident in the Texas Hill Country area. The Lux Funeral Home said services were pending.
Halsey went 14-19 in 88 games with the New York Yankees, Arizona and Oakland from 2004-06. The left-hander most recently pitched in the minors for the Yankees in 2011.
In 2004, Halsey dueled Boston ace Pedro Martinez into the middle innings in a game highlighted by Derek Jeter's diving catch into the stands at Yankee Stadium.
In 2006, Halsey gave up Barry Bonds' 714th home run, tying Babe Ruth for second place on the career list. Halsey later joked about the specially marked balls for Bonds' at-bats.
"They just have a B and a number on them, and a picture of Barry, too. If you look into his eye, he winks at you," Halsey said.

Hasley's friends, family, and former teammates, it's a schock to hear what happened to Brad, He's an excellent baseball player.
Once said, "We're all on the same train in life, but those who have fallen asleep in death are in the sleeper car." When God calls Brad's name, he will wake up to a paradise earth. He will be able to play baseball once again. Plus, Brad will be able to play baseball with legends of baseball such as Babe Ruth.

I'm in SHOCK and very SAD to hear of Brad's death!! He was one of my son's Lonnie's BEST FRIENDS in high school and spent many hours in our home just hanging out as teens!! When Brad came back to visit us after he signed with the Yankees I asked him for his autograph because I knew he would become famous and I may not get a chance to get his autograph then! He laughed, but signed a piece of paper for me that I framed and still have!!! I'm PRAYING for the Halsey Family!! God bless and comfort you in this darkest of times! Brad was an AWESOME YOUNG MAN!! Many were blessed for having known him!!
