How can Ortiz retire...

[HammerDown]

Howard even managed to strike out against Mike Pelfrey last night. 'Nuff said.

Hell, I could do that!

sandy kofax???

Yeah that's close to what I mean he did finish strong. But then he got hurt right? That's pretty much why he retired. Ortiz is just walking away by choice. Mad respect I don't think anyone's ever done it.

ted Williams hit 29 hr and .316 his final year at 41, pretty sure he could have gone a few more as well.

its been done, its just not common enough

OK that counts for sure. Hit a HR on his last at bat too. So Williams and Ortiz. Must be a Red Sox thing.
