Kevin Millwood retires after 16 seasons, 443 starts and two no-hitters | Big League Stew - Yahoo! Sports
Saying he only would return for a 17th season if he could pitch close to home, right-hander Kevin Millwood called it a career Friday night after a successful major league ride. His highlights include two no-hitters — one done on his own with the Philadelphia Phillies in 2003 and the other as part of a six-man effort with the Seattle Mariners this past season.
Millwood, who turned 38 years old in December, told the Shelby (N.C.) Star that he was "just ready to retire" after agent Scott Boras couldn't hook up a deal with the Atlanta Braves or Tampa Bay Rays, teams that play near his home in Gainesville, Ga.
