Three-time World Series champion Terrance Gore died at 34, the Kansas City Royals announced Saturday.

Gore was a member of the Royals when they won the American League Championship Series in 2014 and 2015, and a part of their World Series-winning team in 2015. He played from 2014-22, and appeared in the major leagues with the Royals, Atlanta Braves, Chicago Cubs, Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Mets.

Gore was one of the most unique players in Major League Baseball, as he was added to postseason rosters for his ability to pinch-run and play outfield defense. He played 112 regular season games in his career, hitting .216 with no career home runs, but with 43 stolen bases.
