SAN FRANCISCO (AP)—Randy Johnson(notes) is retiring after 22 major league seasons.

The Big Unit, an overpowering left-hander who last June became the 24th pitcher to win 300 games, made the expected announcement Tuesday on a conference call.

“I really wanted to go out on my terms,” Johnson said. “I just feel like there’s not a lot more for me to do in this game. I just think it’s a natural progression when you play this long. Eventually you have to say it’s time.”

A five-time Cy Young Award winner, the 46-year-old Johnson accomplished just about everything in his remarkable career that a player hopes for in baseball.

one of the best to ever to it, sure fire Hall of Famer & most importantly, he's clean. 8)

amazing career.

Damn, what a career, even though he bitched during the end of his stay here I still respect the guy, the definition of dominance.
