Give him credit for hanging in there and being one of the top ten (maybe top 5?) RBIers left.   He hung it up after a brief stint with the Angels in late 2004.     Happy birthday, Andres.


Also it is Paul McCartney's 64th birthday tomorrow.

Pretty sure Galaragga was 5th left. Clemens, both Francos and Santiago all outlasted him.

A list of RBI retirement dates would be great for the wiki.  Someone make it happen!

And Andres actually hung them up after a brief stint in Spring Training with the Mets last year.

would you do the list by retirement announcement dates, or by last MLB game played?  or last minor league game played?  could get dicey.

I'm thinking that the Dee-Nee collective will be too lazy to get around to this one, Gant

This info is in the DB for a few players - check the 1987 page for examples.  I did last game played, since retirement dates aren't always announced (and in the case of Clemens, not always permanent).
