The baseball world was rocked by the surprising news of former journeyman slugger Jeremy Giambi's untimely death on Wednesday night.
The 47-year-old former Royals, A's, Phillies and Red Sox utility man -- and younger brother of five-time All-Star Jason Giambi -- died at his family's home in southern California, according to multiple reports.
A cause of death had not been revealed by Thursday morning.
The stunning development was met with an array of tributes and reactions on social media, where countless of Giambi's former teammates, managers, peers and teams weighed in, along with some of the many journalists and fans who covered and followed his relatively brief but eventful career.
