Ex-MLB Star Francisco Cordero Robbed at Gunpoint in Dominican Republic

The former pitcher was targeted in a brazen daytime theft caught on surveillance video.

Francisco Cordero, a former MLB closer, was robbed at gunpoint outside a grocery store in Santo Domingo.
Surveillance footage shows two masked individuals on a motorcycle targeting Cordero specifically, taking only his chain.
Cordero, who was playing dominos at the time, did not resist as the assailant approached with a gun.
The robbery occurred near the American embassy, and Cordero believes it was a planned attack rather than random.
Cordero, a three-time All-Star, played 14 seasons in Major League Baseball, primarily with the Texas Rangers and Cincinnati Reds.
