Former Oakland A's slugger Jeremy Giambi became 'very emotional, very negative' after he was hit in the head six months before he died by suicide.
Giambi had struggled with drug abuse — methamphetamines and Percocet — in the past and was even put on a psychiatric hold at one point eight years before his death, according to the report, written by Coroner Investigator Ricardo Lopez.
But it was"not believed the decedent was using drugs recently," Lopez wrote. A post-mortem screen for drugs such as fentanyl, methamphetamines, cocaine and various opiates came back negative, coroner's records showed. Giambi's family said he had been working as a pitching coach in August when he was"struck in the head by a baseball and fractured his zygomatic bone," which is just below the eye, according to Lopez.
Giambi had surgery to repair the break, but he"seemed different since the injury," his mother told Lopez. "She said since the injury, the decedent was very emotional, very negative and would let the smallest things ruin his day," Lopez reported.Giambi left a suicide note behind. The corner did not detail its contents.
