A report by the Los Angeles coroner is raising questions about whether a recent head injury might have played a part in former Major League baseball player Jeremy Giambi’s suicide earlier this year. People reports that Giambi’s mother told investigators the 47-year-old was hit in the face with a baseball so hard last year it broke his cheekbone and he needed surgery. She said that he “seemed different” after that and was “very negative, emotional, and paranoid.” Giambi, the younger brother of ex-Yankee Jason Giambi, spent six season in the majors, playing for the Oakland A’s, the Royals, the Phillies, and the Red Sox.
