Terrance Gore was known as one of the fastest men in baseball. He played in 14 games for the Cubs in 2018, mostly as a pinch-runner, and also appeared in the Wild Card Game that year against the Rockies. He was still in MLB as recently as 2022, with the Mets.
Today, I have sad news to pass along about Gore (Bluesky link):
Here is more from Gore’s wife (Bluesky link).
Here is a steal of second Gore made against the Nationals Sept. 6, 2018 [VIDEO].
In that clip, you can see just how fast Gore was, including some Statcast numbers.
It’s sad when anyone passes away, but age 34 is way, way too young. From all accounts Gore was one of the nicest, kindest people in the game. Sincere condolences to his family, friends, teammates and colleagues in baseball, and fans who enjoyed watching Terrance Gore play.
