Timeline

1972

Cory Fulton Lidle (March 22, 1972 – October 11, 2006) was an American professional baseball player.

1990

Lidle graduated from South Hills High School in West Covina, California in 1990.

He was a high school teammate of future major leaguers Jason Giambi and Aaron Small.

Lidle was not drafted by any baseball teams, but he was signed by the Minnesota Twins as an amateur free agent.

1992

Lidle's twin brother, Kevin, also played baseball, as a catcher and pitcher for various minor league teams between 1992 and 2002, and for an independent team in 2005.

1993

He was released in 1993 and spent a season playing for the unaffiliated Pocatello Posse in Idaho while bartending.

After one season in Pocatello, he was signed by the Milwaukee Brewers.

1994

Due to his participation as a replacement player during the 1994 Major League Baseball strike, he was ineligible to join the Major League Baseball Players Association.

1996

In 1996, Lidle was traded to the New York Mets.

1997

A right-handed pitcher, Lidle played in Major League Baseball with the New York Mets, Tampa Bay Devil Rays, Oakland Athletics, Toronto Blue Jays, Cincinnati Reds, Philadelphia Phillies and the New York Yankees from 1997 to 2006.

Lidle was killed when the small aircraft he owned crashed into a residential building in New York City.

Lidle made his major league debut on May 8, 1997 with the Mets.

He became a trusted relief pitcher that season, going 7-1 with a 3.19 earned run average out of the bullpen.

He and his wife, Melanie (nee Varela), were married in 1997.

1998

Lidle had arm surgery in 1998.

Lidle later played for the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, Oakland Athletics, Toronto Blue Jays, Cincinnati Reds, Philadelphia Phillies and New York Yankees.

2000

Their son, Christopher Taylor Lidle, was born September 18, 2000.

Lidle was a descendant of Robert Fulton, the inventor of the steamboat, as reflected in his middle name.

2001

His best season was 2001, when he achieved a 13-6 record with a 3.59 ERA (10th in the American League) for Oakland, helping the Athletics win the wild card.

2002

In August 2002, he gave up only one run during the whole month (setting Oakland's record for consecutive innings without an earned run), won all five of his starts, and was one of the prime movers in the A's historic run of 20 straight wins.

It was on this Oakland team where Lidle earned the nickname "Snacks", for his apparent love of "inhaling" junk food in the bullpen.

After the 2002 season, Lidle was traded to the Toronto Blue Jays, for whom he played one season.

2003

In 2003, Lidle led the major leagues with 123 earned runs allowed and had a 5.75 ERA that was the worst among qualified starters.

Lidle then signed with the Cincinnati Reds, who later traded him to the Philadelphia Phillies.

Lidle played for the Phillies for parts of three seasons, amassing a record of 26-20.

2006

On July 30, 2006, Lidle was traded along with outfielder Bobby Abreu from the Philadelphia Phillies to the New York Yankees for minor league shortstop C. J. Henry, the Yankees' first round pick in the 2005 draft, along with left-handed reliever Matt Smith, minor league catcher Jesús Sánchez, and minor league right-hander Carlos Monasterios.

After being traded, he criticized his former team, stating: "On the days I'm pitching, it's almost a coin flip as to know if the guys behind me are going to be there to play 100 percent."

He noted his excitement to join a Yankees team that expected to win.

In his first start for the Yankees, Lidle went six innings, giving up one run on four hits en route to an 8-1 Yankee victory as part of a sweep against the Toronto Blue Jays.

On August 21, 2006, he went six three-hit shutout innings, completing an improbable five-game sweep (in four days) over the then second place Boston Red Sox (who went from 1 1⁄2 games behind to 6 1⁄2 games behind).

Lidle "became known for his outspoken nature, challenging the legitimacy of Barry Bonds’s home run records" in a 2006 interview.

On October 7, in his final game (Game Four of the 2006 ALDS), Lidle lasted only an inning and a third, allowing three earned runs on four hits as the Yankees lost to the Detroit Tigers, 8-3.

He was criticized for telling a reporter, "We got matched up with a team that, I think, was a little more ready to play than we were," which was taken by some as a jab at manager Joe Torre.

For damage control, he called the radio talk show Mike and the Mad Dog and gave an extended defense of himself and the Yankees; the interview became contentious.

In his major league career, Lidle had an 82-72 record with a 4.57 earned run average.

Lidle was married and had one son.

On October 11, 2006, just four days after the Yankees' season ended with a loss to the Detroit Tigers in the 2006 ALDS, Lidle and co-pilot/flight instructor Tyler Stanger were flying a Cirrus SR20 airplane when it crashed into the Belaire Apartments complex at 524 East 72nd Street on New York City's Upper East Side, killing them both.

The plane was flying above the East River past the Queensboro Bridge toward restricted airspace.

A strong wind from the east due to an incoming front caused the plane to be blown into the building as it was making a 180-degree turn.

In addition to the deaths of Lidle and Stanger, 26 were injured in the accident, about half of them New York City firefighters.
