Remember "Ace" Ventura; Amelia Meyer Kindness Project: SHOWcast 01/23/2017

A somber #TheShowKC today, after the news broke on Sunday that Royals pitcher Yordano Ventura had been involved in a fatal car crash in the Dominican Republic. After thoughts from the crew, Royals VP/Public Relations Toby Cook called in to share his thoughts on the young ace, the plans for this weekend's Fan Fest, and the ongoing tributes to this rising star. Then, Jill Meyer called us to tell us about her daughter Amelia. The day before her 9th birthday, Amelia had a photo shoot with Yordano as part of a charity calendar. Just a couple of years before, Amelia had been diagnosed with brain cancer. Her meeting with the "Ace" was a happy one and the two bonded. Amelia passed away in October last year and Yordano this weekend. A baseball signed by the pitcher is just part of the tangible memories her mom Jill has. And now, you can actually see the results of that day as Amelia and Yordano's picture is the January pic of the Braden's Hope calendar. Find out more at BradensHope.org.
