MLB player Sandy León changed his uniform number to remember the worst day of his life — the harrowing day his young daughter fell into a pool: 'It's so special for me.'
MLB player Sandy León changed his uniform number to remember the worst day of his life:"It's so special for me"has worn many jersey numbers during a long career in Major League Baseball.Texas RangersThat was Aug. 18, 2020. León, then playing for Cleveland, had just arrived by bus to the team hotel in Pittsburgh when he called his wife, Liliana, who was at home in Fort Myers, Florida, with their two small children.
"My wife was screaming, and she was praying," León recalled."She was saying words I didn't understand. Then I saw on the ground. She was purple. She was dead." Liliana hadn't been trained in CPR, but she tried it anyway. She pressed on Nahomy's chest again and again.Getting no response, she abandoned her resuscitation efforts."The only one who could do something for her was God," Liliana said."So, I just prayed. Holy spirit help me. Holy spirit help me. Because I knew that my daughter was dying."
Paramedics soon rushed in. As they worked on Nahomy, they peppered Liliana with questions about what happened.Liliana didn't know. But she told them there was a surveillance camera they could check. "They looked at me with that face that something really, really bad happened," she said."And they told me from the time she fell, until the time you picked her up was 12 minutes.""When I heard them say that she was in the pool for that long, I broke down," Sandy said."I was like, 'She's not coming back.'"
She's perfectly healthy now and has no lingering effects from the harrowing experience. She'll turn 4 later this month and revels in being a girly girl, loving anything that's pink or sparkly.
