Jose Fernandez was remembered at a candlelight vigil Wednesday at Alonso High School in Tampa, the school he attended, the school where he became a baseball star. And now, the school says, something unthinkable has happened.

Someone stole one of Fernandez’s high-school jerseys that was on display in his old dugout during the vigil. The news comes from Anastasia Dawson of the Palm Beach Post, who says the school is “unbelievably sad.”

This happened on the same day that Fernandez was remembered at an emotional memorial service in Miami, where pallbearers wore his No. 16 Miami Marlins jersey. The 24-year-old star pitcher died early Sunday morning in a boating accident.

Fernandez was selected out of Alonso High School in the first round of the 2011 amateur draft. When he reached the big leagues, he was the first Alonso High player to do so. The school had retired his No. 16 after he was drafted. Alonso High’s principal Ken Heart called the theft of the jersey “the lowest of the low.”

According to Dawson, the school has one more of Fernandez’s No. 16 jerseys left, which was being hung up Thursday.

If there’s any justice in the world, the culprit will return the jersey and Alonso High will go back to having two Fernandez jerseys.
