Ex-Dodger Carl Crawford says heart is ‘heavy’ after two drown in his pool

Retired outfielder Carl Crawford spoke out Saturday, a week after a 25-year-old woman and a 5-year-old boy drowned in his backyard pool in Houston.

“My Hearts (sic) Heavy,” Crawford wrote on Instagram.

“The tragic events that occurred at my home will be with me forever. I’m at a loss for words. I’ve struggled all week to manage my emotions and I keep thinking of the families of those who’ve passed and their grief, I know they have it the hardest. They are the first and last thing I think of these days. Please keep them in your prayers, I know they will always be in mine.”

Bethany Lartigue, a professional football player from Louisiana, dove into the pool to try to save Kasen Hersi, her brother previously told the Houston Chronicle.

Both were transported to Memorial Hermann Greater Heights Hospital and declared dead.

“It has not processed yet,” Brandon Lartigue told the Chronicle last week. “We’re dealing with a lot of things right now because it’s unexpected — the death of someone who had a lot of promise in life.”

Lartique and Hersi were not related and neither was related to Crawford.

Bethany Lartigue’s football team, the Arlington Impact, said they plan to retire her number.

“We know you have found eternal peace,” the Women’s Football Alliance team wrote on Facebook. “Your soul touched us all! You were our solider, teammate, friend & SISTER!”

Crawford, 38, retired in 2016 after 15 years with the Tampa Bay Rays, Boston Red Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers.
