and Baltimore Orioles legendary manager Earl Weaver
both died.

Stan Musial’s death was announced by the Cardinals in a
news release and said he died at his home in Ladue, a St. Louis suburb, surrounded by family. The team said
Musial's son-in-law, Dave Edmonds, informed the club of the slugger's death.
Musial was 92. Weaver was 82 and died on a Caribbean cruise associated with
the Orioles according to his marketing agent.

The cause of death was not immediately known of either Weaver or Musial, but
according to sources, Weaver may have suffered a heart attack.
