Jonny Gomes on XM with Dibs & Kevin
Talking about player physicals, Devil Rays' Jonny Gomes had a heart attack
at age 23. On Christmas Eve, 2003, he thought he had indigestion,
finally went to a doctor the next day, found out he'd been
having a heart attack for 27 hours. He obviously still does a tremendous
job & plays hard. (Dibs & Kevin mention Larry Lucchino said his team
doesn't usually give physicals to players it obtains in trades). Jonny says
the Rays have sold more tickets for the upcoming season than they did
for the whole year in 2005. Lots of improvements to the stadium experience,
including free parking & ability to bring one's own food. February 11 will be
Jonny Gomes Day in Petaluma, California where he played little league.
Proceeds will go to charity. Gomes finished 3rd in ROY voting.
