Piazza finally retires…vows to keep acting straight.

Piazza

Mike Piazza is retiring from baseball following a 16-season career in which he became one of the top-hitting pillow-biters catchers in MLB history. It’s always best to ‘retire’ with your ‘dignity intact’ when the phone isn’t ringing anyway.

“After discussing my options with my beard wife, family and agent, I felt it is time to start a new chapter in my life,” he said in a statement released Tuesday by his agent, Dan Lozano. “It has been an amazing journey…So today, I walk away with no regrets.

“I knew this day was coming and over the last two years, I started to make my peace with it. I gave it my all and left everything on the field.”

Liberace Piazza finished with a .308 career average, 427 home runs and 1,335 RBIs for the Dodgers (1992-98), Florida (1998), New York Mets (1998-05), San Diego (2006) and Oakland (2007).

The 12 time All-Star will now retire to a luxurious, languid life of kinky, hard-core, man-on-man ‘pitching & catching’.
