The original story..
Padres' compassion hits a home run - The Orange County Register (http://www.ocregister.com/articles/lachappa-98759-says-padres.html)
Cliffs: he had a heart attack while warming up in the bull pen a few years back, which left him in a wheel chair and can't even spoon feed himself.
The Padres keep him signed on so he has good medical insurance to provide him with quality of life.
Great story! and wish we heard more about good things like this.. :seasix:
