MLB: Rangers to Honor Fan Who Died in Stadium Fall With Statue
Posted by Sabrina B. @gametimegirl The Texas Rangers will honor firefighter Shannon Stone, who was killed at the park earlier this year, with a bronze statue that should be in place for the 2012 season. The statue, which will also feature Stone’s six-year old son Cooper, is tentatively titled Rangers Fans and will likely be on display by the home-plate entrance at Rangers Ballpark.
