MIAMI BEACH — Miami Marlins pitcher Jose Fernandez had cocaine and alcohol in his system when his boat crashed into a Miami Beach jetty last month, according to toxicology reports released Saturday.
It is not clear whether Fernandez, 24, was steering the boat at the time of the crash on Sept. 25, which killed him and two of his friends. Fernandez had a blood-alcohol level of 0.147, well above Florida’s legal limit of 0.08, according to autopsy reports released by the Miami-Dade County medical examiner’s office.
