Ryan Minor, a former two-sport Oklahoma Sooners star who played three seasons for the Baltimore Orioles before becoming a longtime minor-league coach in Maryland, died Friday after a battle with cancer.
Minor was 49 years old. He was diagnosed in September 2022 with Stage IV colon cancer and recently entered hospice.
The news was shared on social media by his twin brother, Damon Minor.
