I went to two games when i was able to see mike play and in both games he hit a home run to win the game and one was vs the Giants. We all miss mike

Wow so many were do I start ... fond memory would be on night I was at a house party, drinking with all my friends. We were up late and caught the 1:30am Sportscenter. I knew they(Padres) were playing the Mets. I hear the commentator bottom of the ninth, Mike Darr at the plate ... I think it was a 2-2 or 3-2 pitch ... going going gone. I can't remember if it was Whitesnake pitching against him(former teammate), but when we all seen Mike go yard to win the game, we just went apesh!t. I was so proud of him like always. Just such a good feeling to know how he felt in that moment. Mike is my cousin, but since I had no brothers he was my big bro. Always looking out for my and protecting me. The best years of my life were spent with my bro Michael. I have never met a better natural athlete than him. He could do anything you can do, and he was out to prove he could do better. The greats are always robbed before their time, well I guess the big man upstairs decides that. I used to get so depressed whenever I would think about him cause he was such a big part of my life, there was no one I was closer to and the same for him. I knew what he thought and felt and we were always there for each other and with each other. I miss you Michael ... your the best friend and family I'll ever have. Now I get my satisfaction from watching his two boys play football and baseball, they got the genes thats for sure. Thank you everyone for your support, its good to know his memory and legacy lives on. Go San Diego and go .. 26 !!!

i have that game on tape..it was great to see him go yard when he was a line driver hitter.


RIP Mike

Do you think that I could get a copy of the video? I know it would mean a lot to our family. It's one of those games we all remember, but none of us have it on tape?



Let me know, I would be more than happy to reimburse you for any expenses.



Thanks,



Kevin Darr

Michael Was so Special To Me♥
He Was Like Always Over At Our House
And He was The Only person who Called Me Ashley Nicole
And I Loved That! I Was To Little To Have Any Real Funny or good Memory
But I Do Remeber Being At Almost Every Game!
He Was The Best Cuz Any Girl Could Have!
I Loved Him To Death!
I Was only 7 When He Died so I Really Didn't understand All I Knew Was That Michael Had Gone To Heaven And Would Never Come Back!
I Love Him Still And Can't Wait To See Him Again♥
