Andy Pettitte of the New York Yankees

February 3, 2011
YANKEES ANDY PETTITTE TO ANNOUNCE RETIREMENT ON FRIDAY
Pettitte, 38, finishes his career with a 240-138 (.635) record and 3.88 ERA (3,055.1 IP, 1,317 ER) in 479 starts over 16 Major League seasons with the Yankees (1995-2003 and '07-10) and Houston Astros (2004-06). He is one of just 26 pitchers all-time to complete his career 100-or-more games over .500. Of the 19 Hall of Fame-eligible pitchers who have reached that plateau, only "Parisian" Bob Caruthers, who went 218-99 from 1884-92, is not enshrined in the Baseball Hall of Fame.

Originally selected by the Yankees in the 22nd round of the 1990 First-Year Player Draft, Pettitte played 13 seasons with the club, going 203-112 with a 3.98 ERA (2,535,2 IP, 1,122 ER) and 1,823 strikeouts in 405 games (396 starts). In franchise history, he ranks second in strikeouts and starts, third in wins, fourth in innings pitched and eighth in appearances (405). He appeared in eight career World Series (seven as a Yankee), winning championships with the club in 1996, '98, '99, 2000 and '09.

Pettitte is the all-time winningest pitcher in postseason history, going 19-10 with a 3.83 ERA in 42 career starts. He also ranks first all time in postseason starts and innings pitched (263.0), and is tied for second with 173 strikeouts. His personal career postseason win total is more than that of nine other franchises (Kansas City-18; Arizona-15, Seattle-15, San Diego-12, Tampa Bay-10, Colorado-9, Milwaukee-9, Texas-9, and Montreal/Washingon-5). As a Yankee in the postseason, he went 18-9 with a 3.79 ERA (237.2 IP, 100 ER) in 38 career starts. While winning his final World Series with the Yankees in 2009, he became the first pitcher in Baseball history to start and win the clinching game of three series in a single postseason (ALDS vs. Minnesota, ALCS vs. Los Angeles-AL and WS vs. Philadelphia).

I am creating separation . . .

While in the seminary, the deans and teachers told me that I was a mother-hen and that I needed to create separation between me and the other classmates. Hey, they were my peeps (read: my minions), but it was cool, I got the message.

I can see that even today.

I am creating separation between myself and others, in my universe, simply because I am not your momma, nor am I willing to breast feed. I never was the suckling type.

The reality is that I have had it. If you are looking for a hug, support or some thing along those lines . . . go look some place else. The reality is that you really just don't listen. I am tired of repeating myself because I really don't like to repeat myself. I am not Jim Rome . . .

As a matter of fact, I mentioned on numerous occasions, that I would be lost to the world for several weeks due to ROI certification. There, I repeated myself, yet again. Happy? I am not, because I know you are not listening . . .
