03/20: Al Leiter Retires

Posted by: Patrick

He only pitched 38 of his 419 games here, but it started here and it ended here, so I figure it's worth a note. Al Leiter has retired.

After retiring the only batter he faced on Sunday against Cleveland, two-time All-Star Al Leiter announced his retirement. ...

Leiter told manager Joe Torre and general manager Brian Cashman of his decision before the game, and it was decided that he would pitch following Randy Johnson until he got an out, which happened on a ground ball by Eduardo Perez, the first batter he faced.

I've always liked Leiter. Hopefully the Yanks can offer him a job at YES Network or something.
