Erickson Set to Retire
Tuesday, August 4th , 2076
Flanked by his two young children, John Erickson said his reason for retirement is simple.
"I want to spend more time being a father now," the Minneapolis Vikings left fielder said in announcing that this season would be his last in pro baseball. "I'm 36 years old now, I think it's a good time to go."
In his career Erickson has played in 1819 games with a .250 batting average. Among his 1657 hits are 329 doubles, 103 triples and 73 home runs. He also has scored 856 runs and driven in 632 runs.
