Bean felt that somehow he was different, he told the 300 attendees at the Discount Bvlgari. It wasn't until he met Sam, an aristocrat from Iran, that he realized what it was. He was gay. "Here I was wanting to be a baseball player and not wanting to be gay," he said. Macho major league players, after all, aren't homosexual. Discount Cartier publicly anyway. There are always those gossipy rumors: Johnny Bench is gay, Mike Piazza is, just look at that moustache... Gossip is all it is. For a player to admit it would hurt his marketability. Bean found a way to hide it, "but I felt it was tattooed on my forehead." Discount Chopard left his wife to live secretly with Sam. At games Sam sat up the stands far away from the players' families. Sam hid when players came to the house. Three years into the relationship Discount ChronoSwiss died of a ruptured pancreas. Bean hadn't even called 911 for fear he would be recognized. He took him to the hospital and held his hand before he died. And, because "baseball never stops," he played a game the next day before calling Sam's parents to tell them their son had died. Still in the closet, Bean didn't go to Sam's funeral, a decision "I will regret for the rest of my life." At 1 p.m. that day, "I died a little bit." He finished the 1995 baseball season "but every day I started to hate baseball more and more." He walked away and never looked back. It was a year before he admitted to his own parents that he was gay.
