Bobby Jenks Legacy Lives On | MLB News

Bobby Jenks, the fearless pitcher who helped the Chicago White Sox win the 2005 World Series and whose sharp wit and big heart defined his legacy, passed away at 44 after a courageous battle with stomach cancer. Even as he fought illness, his spirit remained unbroken—his laughter echoed at the Windy City Thunderbolts’ stadium, where he managed this past season and was set to return this year. Former teammates, coaches, and friends remember him as a beloved leader, a relentless competitor, and a devoted father whose warmth touched everyone he met. His wife honored him as the heart of their family, and the baseball world is rallying to pay tribute: a special game later this summer will honor his life and fight cancer in his name.
