The End Is Here: Robbie Fox Retires
"I can't play this game the way I could before," came the assessment from <Robbie Fox:player#4123> today.

A bleary-eyed Fox told reporters that he was wrapping up his career at long last.


"I can tell when it's going to rain, my big toe always hurts the day before. And I spend hours after each game icing down my knees," he said. "My joints ache and I'm about sick to death of stinking like ointment at all hours trying to bounce back for the next game. Road trips seem twice as long nowadays. I want to spend each night in my own bed."

Reporters were surprised when they heard a litany of complaints from Fox, who usually has an upbeat and pleasant personality in the clubhouse.

As the <Pittsburgh:team#23> manager said, "This boys game will make a man real old real quick. The daily grind, the marathon each season, it wears on your soul. Looks like Father Time caught up with Robbie. I have nothing but respect for the guy."

During his 1394-game career <Fox:player#4123> has batted .213 and collected 944 hits, 90 home runs and 328 RBIs.
