Steve Olin

Steven Robert Olin (October 4, 1965 - March 22, 1993) was a right-handed submarining relief pitcher for the Cleveland Indians from 1988 to 1992. He was killed in a boating accident during spring training of 1993 on Little Lake Nellie in Clermont, Florida. The boat he was in struck a pier, killing him and fellow reliever Tim Crews and seriously injuring Bob Ojeda. It was the first death of active major league players since Thurman Munson in 1979.

For his career, Olin finished with a 3.10 earned run average in 273 innings, with 48 saves.

In response to the accident that took Olin and Crews in 1993, the Indians wore a patch on their sleeves of their jerseys. It consisted of a baseball with their numbers on it. Olin's #31 is on the left, with an arrow above. Crews' #52 is on the right, with a star above it.
