The AZ Family, a local media outlet in Arizona, reported on the 10th (Korea time) that Brian Matter, a former left-handed pitcher of the Major League, was found dead at a house in Arizona. He was 37 years old.

Matter's alma mater San Diego University and his former team Baltimore also expressed their condolences in statements released on the same day. However, the cause of his death remains unknown.

According to the Phoenix Police Department in Arizona, the first report related to Matter's death was received around 2:45 p.m. on the 9th, and the body was found in a residential area in Phoenix. Information related to the cause of death is not yet known, and an autopsy will be conducted to determine it.

The Baltimore Orioles, where Matters spent his prime, said in a statement that "he was deeply saddened by the sad news of former Baltimore pitcher Brian Matters," recalling that Matters was a beloved player and teammate while he was playing in Baltimore. He always had a smile on his face."

Matter, who is from Colorado, U.S., was a top prospect when he was an amateur, receiving Baltimore's nomination four times in the first round of the 2008 Major League Rookie Draft when he was a university student in San Diego.

As a former first-round player, he made his Major League debut in 2009, just one year after he entered the professional league. Playing in a total of eight games during his first year in the big league, he showed promise by posting five wins, two losses and an ERA of 4.63.

In 2010, the following year, he played in a total of 32 games, including 10 wins, 12 losses, and an ERA of 4.30. During this period, he pitched a total of 175 2/3 innings, showing the innings required of starting pitchers.

Although his start to the season was delayed due to injury in 2011, he suddenly showed turbulence even after his return to the mound, collapsing from 1-9 with a 10.69 ERA in just 12 appearances. In 2012, he seemed to be regaining his old form by rebounding from 6 wins and 10 losses with a 4.87 ERA, but that was it.

Since then, Matter has gone downhill without winning double digits for the season. In 2016, he was traded to the Chicago Cubs and sought a chance to turn the game around, but in vain. That year, he played for a total of two teams, including Baltimore and the Cubs, but lost with a 14.00 ERA. It was his last major league record.

Afterwards, he signed a minor contract with Arizona and started to return to the big leagues, but failed to achieve his goal. Having played in the Major League for a total of eight years, he left 27 wins and 41 losses with an ERA of 4.92.

Matthus, a pitcher who went from top promising players in his amateur days to rookie drafts in the Major League, had never blossomed properly in the big leagues and ended up with a "sad ending" that turned his back on the world early on.
