Reports from The New York Times cited a heart attack as the cause of death on Friday.

Nicknamed “G.A.,” he is remembered as a “lunch-pail” player who let his production speak for itself, occasionally facing fan skepticism about hustle.

Known for his steady production and reputation as a workmanlike player, he earned the nickname “G.A.” and was considered a classic lunch-pail contributor who let his numbers do the talking.

reporters note that the story will be updated with more information, analysis, and context as it becomes available.

He was known for avoiding media attention and focusing on family, daily play, and performance rather than publicity.

The Angels announced his passing but did not disclose the cause or location of death.

In his memory, the Angels will wear a memorial patch, hold a moment of silence, and show a tribute video; he is survived by his wife Teresa and children Brianne, Bailey, and Garret III.

The Associated Press contributed to the report.

Public discussion includes a 2017 social media post showing Trey with his father at a high school event, reflecting family pride and Garret’s connection to his children.

On broadcasting, he remained humble, saying he would share expertise when asked but wouldn’t carry the show.

Garret Anderson, a franchise icon who spent the majority of his 17-year MLB career with the Angels, became the club’s all-time leader in games played, hits, runs, RBIs, and total bases, and was a three-time All-Star who played a central role in the 2002 World Series championship run.
