Injury to Knight A Career-Ender
Monday, June 11th, 2035
The Milwaukee Oilmen have announced the retirement of closer John Knight. The news, while disappointing, does not come as a complete surprise. Knight has been out of action with a damaged elbow ligament. He recently said that it had put his baseball future "seriously in doubt." All doubt is now removed: he has chosen to retire from the sport. The 33-year-old Knight will have more to say about his decision when he meets with the media later this afternoon.
For the year Knight has nailed down 8 saves. In 30 innings he has fanned 21 batters and walked 13. His record is 2-4 with a 4.20 ERA and the opposition is batting .268 against him.
