APRIL 30th - LARRY HISLE RETIRES

Veteran slugging outfielder, and fan favourite of the Brewers, Larry Hisle, announced today that he was retiring from the game of baseball due to a degenerative shoulder condition brought on by a torn rotator cuff suffered back in April of 1979.





"I've decided to walk away from the game that I love so much. Its the toughest decision I've ever had to make in my life, but the physical pain has become to great to put in my best on the diamond each day. The fans deserve so much better than what I can give them now."

It is rumoured that the Brewers front office has offered Hisle a position, but nothing has been confirmed as of yet.
