Baseball players quickly took to Twitter today to remember Stuart Scott, the man who made his living talking about the cool things they did on a baseball diamond. Some were sad, some were funny, and all were kind.

Let’s start with cancer survivor Anthony Rizzo of the Cubs:

Stuart Scott is Sports Center. He will be missed.
