Ivan Calderon shot to death
LOIZA, Puerto Rico -- Former Major League outfielder Ivan Calderon was shot to death Saturday. He was 42.
Witnesses said Calderon was in a store when two people entered and, without a word, shot the former outfielder multiple times in the back, said police Sgt. Maribel Arzuaga.
Calderon played 10 seasons in the Major Leagues with the Seattle Mariners, Chicago White Sox, Boston Red Sox and Montreal Expos. He finished his big league career in 1993 with a .272 batting average, 104 homers and 444 RBIs.
Calderon was born in eastern Puerto Rico and lived in Loiza, a northern coastal town.
