The Arizona State Sun Devils baseball team honored actor, comedian and former Sun Devil pitcher Brody Stevens, who died at age 48 before Saturday's game.
Stevens – his real name Steven Brody – died Friday in Los Angeles. Several reports have stated that Stevens' death was the result of an apparent suicide.
A baseball fan,
Stevens received a scholarship to play baseball at the ASU and played four games before focusing on his comedy career. He has appeared in a number of television shows and movies, including "The Hangover" and "The Hangover Part II".

I will never forget the time spent with Brody Stevens during my stay in Chicago, thanks to Mike Borzello. Every conversation was memorable, he loved baseball and watching him throw a pen in early spring will always be a highlight for me.
