Daniel Webb Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Oct. 16, 2017.
WAVERLY, Tenn. (AP) - Daniel Webb, a former relief pitcher for the Chicago White Sox, has died in an ATV accident. He was 28.

Humphreys County Sheriff Chris Davis says Webb died Saturday night. Davis says Webb's wife and two other people sustained "significant injuries" in the accident, about 70 miles west of Nashville.

Webb was 7-5 with a 4.50 ERA in 94 games for the White Sox from 2013-16. The right-hander pitched one inning in 2016, then had Tommy John surgery in June. He was released by the White Sox after the season and had not pitched professionally during his recovery.

"Daniel left many friends within the Chicago White Sox organization and we are all shocked and stunned by the news," the team said in a statement. "He was a terrific young man with a full life ahead of him."

Webb was drafted by Toronto in 2009 and traded to the White Sox after the 2011 season in a deal for pitcher Jason Frasor. Webb made his major league debut in September 2013 at Yankee Stadium - the first hitter he faced was Derek Jeter, and Webb walked him.

Webb made 57 appearances for the White Sox in 2014. He pitched 110 innings in his career, striking out 93.

One of the nicest young men I have ever met ! I met him in PT and he signed a baseball card and gave it to me ! I saw him in a store after that and he spoke to me just like a regular person and not a famous baseball !
I would like to send my deepest condolences to his wife and child and family and friends. May God Bless and carry you all thru the hard years ahead . He was an honorable human being !
Sincerely ,
Mary Ann Smothermon,Waverly,Tn.

May your hearts find comfort from God who understands and cares. He is close to the brokenhearted; He saves those who are crushed in spirit. With heartfelt sympathy.

I have no affiliation with the family and have met no one involved, but when I read this story early Sunday morning on the UK's Daily Mail, it touched me deeply. God has a plan even if we can't fathom his reasoning. I hope somehow, some way the family can find some comfort. God be with Daniel's young wife and daughter. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
