Brunson Dies

Will Brunson pitched ten seasons in the minors and reached the majors briefly. He died on Saturday, Nov. 23rd, of a sudden heart attack.

I am Will’s brother, John Brunson.  We have had such an outpouring of love and support at the news of Will’s passing.  Will left a lasting impression on everyone he met. Will grew up in Desoto, TX. He played baseball for Eastfield Juco and Southwest Texas State (Texas State) where he met his wife Dana Huneycutt.  Will played many years of minor league baseball with the Reds, Dodgers, Tigers, A’s, and Angels; with some time in the Big Leagues with the Dodgers and Tigers.

My thoughts go out to his family and friends.

Brunson was a AAAA pitcher. He did well in the minors, with a good ERA and decent three-true outcome numbers. He pitched poorly in his brief appearances in the majors, however, and never stuck.
