Randy Johnson Retires Baseball
FILE - In this Sept. 15, 2004, file photo, Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Randy Johnson acknowledges a standing ovation from the crowd after striking out Colorado Rockies batter Vinny Castilla to pass Steve Carlton for third place on the all-time strikeout list during the seventh inning of a baseball game in Phoenix. It was Johnson's 4,137 strike out of his career. Johnson is retiring after 22 major league seasons. The Big Unit, an overpowering lefty who last June became the 24th pitcher in big league history to win 300 games, made the expected announcement on a conference call on Tuesday, Jan. 5, 2010.
