LOS ANGELES (CN) — On the stand Friday, former Major League Baseball player Royce Clayton detailed a four-minute phone call he had with former MLB pitcher Scott Erickson, 15 to 20 minutes after a 2020 car crash that took the lives of two young brothers.
Clayton had been dining with Erickson and his then-girlfriend Rebecca Grossman before the fatal crash and had agreed to drive to Grossman’s house in separate cars. Clayton — a journeyman shortstop who played for 11 different teams over the course of 17 seasons and a longtime friend of Erickson’s — said Erickson told him not to come in the phone call, and that there had been an accident.
