The Arizona Diamondbacks will wear a black patch with “KAYLA” written on the sleeve in memory of Prescott resident Kayla Mueller.
D-backs uniformed personnel will wear the special patch during Spring Training games March 3-8. Mueller, a human rights activist, passed away last month while being held captive by the Islamic State in Syria.
“Kayla will always have a special place in the history of Arizona and we are deeply saddened by her loss,” said D-backs President and CEO Derrick Hall.
