Agent says ex-MVP died of heart attack



NEW YORK -- Ken Caminiti, the 1996 National League MVP who later admitted using steroids during his major league career, died Sunday. He was 41.

Caminiti died of a heart attack in the Bronx, said his agent-lawyer Rick Licht. The city medical examiner's office said an autopsy would be performed Monday, spokeswoman Ellen Borakove said.




My condolences go out to his family. I can't say that I religously keep up with baseball but Caminiti was a name I was familiar with.

Sad story. I hope it wasn't an overdose. He battled drugs badly for many years.

The steroids, the cocaine and the drinking caught up to him.

sad.

his past finally caught up with him...like doc, I hope he had not fallen back into all that mess again.

Unfortunately;

Preliminary results of the autopsy performed on Ken Caminiti show that the former National League MVP died of a drug overdose, a New York City police source told ESPN's Jeremy Schaap.
