Tony La Russa retires

St. Louis manager Tony La Russa says “it feels like it’s time to quit.” The 67-year old manager leaves a champion after leading the Cardinals to a World Series win over the Texas Rangers. He also enjoyed World Series wins in 1989 and 2006 with Oakland and St. Louis, respectively.



             Time To Stop

La Russa is leaving the game
That’s offered him lots of acclaim;
One thing you can bet:
He’s not finished yet –
Next stop is the sport’s Hall of Fame.
