Bartolo Colon saddened baseball fans
Bartolo Colon decided to make many fans sad before the game at Citi Field. It was the moment when, during an interview for Spanish radio, he announced that he would retire from baseball after one more winter league. Bartolo has a great desire, which is to play a few more games in the Dominican winter league and at the same time say goodbye to the Dominican fans, since they deserve it too.
Bartolo played in 21 seasons for numerous clubs such as Rangers, Twins, Braves, Mets, A's, Yankees, Red Sox, Angels, White Sox, and Cleveland. In 2005, he won the American League Cy Young Award and participated in the All-Star tournament four times. He had a 3.49 ERA in 17 career appearances.
One of the greatest moments of Bartolo's career was his only home run. It was this move that contributed to a larger number of his followers, and Bartolo soon became a national hero among his fans.
There was some speculation as to when Bartolo might return to the Major Leagues and possibly the Mets, but in the end, it was all just speculation, which is why it seems like the 49-year-old will soon be done with his active career. Regardless of what happens in the end, it is certain that many will remember Bartolo.
