Darryl Hamilton played 13 MLB seasons with five teams and appeared in the 2000 World Series with the New York Mets. The former outfielder began working in television following his baseball career until his sudden death on June 21.

Hamilton was the victim of a murder-suicide at his girlfriend's home in Pearland, Texas, according to the Pearland Police Department. The 50-year-old Hamilton was found dead and appeared to have suffered multiple gunshot wounds, while his girlfriend, Monica Jordan, was found dead due to an apparent self-inflicted wound in another area of the home.

The two had a 13-month-old who was in the home at the time of the incident, but the child was unharmed and is now with the state's Child Protective Services.

Police arrived at the scene shorty after a third party reported a disturbance inside the home around 4:45 p.m. on Sunday. The bodies of Hamilton and Jordan were transported to the Galveston County Medical Examiner on Sunday and the investigation is ongoing.

Jordan, 44, had previously pleaded guilty to arson in 2008 in an incident with another boyfriend, according to Brazoria County District Attorney Jeri Yenne.

The baseball world mourned the death of Hamilton today. Commissioner Rob Manfred released a statement on behalf of the former big leaguer:

"All of us at Major League Baseball are shocked and saddened by this tragedy.  Darryl followed a successful 13-year career on the field by assembling a multifaceted career in our game, working for MLB Advanced Media and in our Baseball Operations Department before moving on to MLB Network.  He was a talented and personable individual, and we were proud to call him a member of the Baseball Family.  On behalf of Major League Baseball, I extend my deepest sympathies to Darryl's family and his many friends throughout our game."

Bob Bowman, President of Business & Media for Major League Baseball, did as well:

"Darryl Hamilton joined MLB.com in 2003 and distinguished himself with his insight, experience, humor and team spirit. As an analyst at MLB Network since 2013, he found a new role in which he excelled. In addition to being a consummate professional, he was a good friend to all at MLB.com and MLB Network, and he will be sorely missed."

MLB Network honored their colleague in a tweet.

Hamilton batted .291/.360/.385 with 707 runs scored, 51 home runs and 454 RBIs in 1,328 career games wit the Milwaukee Brewers, Texas Rangers, San Francisco Giants, Colorado Rockies and New York Mets.
