UPDATE: NIXON HAS BEEN FOUND SAFE! Details to follow.
News out of Georgia reports that former Atlanta Braves and
New York Yankees outfielder Otis Nixon has been reported missing on Sunday by
Georgia authorities. The Woodstock Police Department tweeted out a recent photo
of Nixon yesterday stating that the 58-year old former outfielder was last seen
on Saturday around 10:00 AM ET leaving his home in his 2011 Range Rover.
Nixon left his house to head over to play gold but never
made it to the golf course and now a search for the former MLB star is on.
Nixon battled drugs his entire life and was even suspended during the 1991
World Series and was unable to play due to his positive test for cocaine. Nixon
was also arrested in 2013 on charges of drug possession, again cocaine. Cocaine
is a hell of a drug I hear.
Nixon played for nine teams during his MLB career which
included the New York Yankees, the Cleveland Indians, the Montreal Expos, the
Boston Red Sox, the Texas Rangers, the Toronto Blue Jays, the Los Angeles
Dodgers and the Atlanta Braves. Nixon’s career ended in 1999.
