Unfortunate circumstance really. Ball player apparently had two firearms in a duffel and one discharged when he picked up the bag. The article doesn't say, but one has to assume either the firearm wasn't holstered (if a handgun) or if a rifle/shotgun then a round chambered and safety off (or knocked off) and some piece of shuffling equipment/clothing pulled the trigger. Thinking if I was in the same situation, I wouldn't carry a rifle/SG loaded in such a manner. I've never stuffed a firearm in a duffel bag, but if I did I'd either unload it or ensure it was sheathed in a holster with a strap or retaining latch. It's a shame.
