Dodgers pitcher Alex Vesia and wife share devastating news of baby daughter's death

Dodgers Pitcher Alex Vesia and Wife Mourn Loss of Their Baby Daughter

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Alex Vesia and his wife, Kayla, shared tragic news about the death of their infant daughter, Sterling Sol Vesia. The announcement came Friday through a heartfelt post on Instagram.

"Our little angel, we love you forever and you’re with us always," the caption read. "Our beautiful daughter went to heaven Sunday, October 26th. There are no words to describe the pain we’re going through, but we hold her in our hearts and cherish every second we had with her."

The couple expressed deep gratitude toward the Dodgers organization, teammates, and fans for their compassion during this difficult time.

"Thank you to the Dodgers for their understanding and support during this time. Our baseball family showed up for us and we wouldn’t be able to get through this without them. Thank you Dodger Nation, the Blue Jays organization, and all baseball fans for your love and support. We have seen all your messages, comments, and posts—it’s brought us so much comfort."

They also acknowledged the medical team at Cedars-Sinai for their care and kindness.

"Lastly, we’d like to thank Cedars-Sinai and all the medical staff who helped Kayla and Sterling. Every person we came across was truly incredible."

The post did not specify the cause of death. Earlier this year, in April, the couple had shared the joyful news of expecting their first child. Vesia, age 29, was absent from the Dodgers' World Series roster due to a personal leave of absence.
