Dodgers Pitcher Alex Vesia and Wife Grieve Loss of Baby Daughter

Dodgers relief pitcher Alex Vesia has revealed the heartbreaking reason for his absence during the World Series. On Friday, Vesia and his wife Kayla shared on Instagram that they are mourning the death of their baby daughter, Sterling Sol Vesia.

“Our little angel we love you forever & you’re with us always. Our beautiful daughter went to heaven Sunday October 26th. There are no words to describe the pain we’re going through but we hold her in our hearts and cherish every second we had with her.”

Vesia, 29, had been away from the team since the World Series began due to what the Dodgers described as a “deeply personal family matter.” The couple had announced their pregnancy in April.

They expressed gratitude for the support they received:

“Thank you to the Dodgers for their understanding and support during this time. Our baseball family showed up for us and we wouldn’t be able to do this without them.”
“Thank you Dodger Nation, Blue Jays organization and all baseball fans for your love and support. We have seen ALL your messages, comments and posts. It’s brought us so much comfort.”

Vesia did not participate in any World Series games after pitching in seven postseason contests earlier in the year.

Summary: Dodgers reliever Alex Vesia and his wife Kayla are mourning their baby daughter’s death, expressing gratitude for the overwhelming support from their baseball communities during this painful time.
