Geremi Gonzalez died Sunday, struck by lightning.

Emergency management official Herman Bracho said Monday that Gonzalez was struck by lightning at a beach.

Gonzalez pitched for five major league teams from 1997-2006. He was 11-9 with a 4.25 ERA for the Cubs in "97 and 7-7 with a 5.32 ERA in '98 before developing arm problems. The right-hander appeared in 131 games and made 83 starts, compiling a 30-35 record.

My thoughts go out to his family and friends.
