Jordan Zimmermann Announces Retirement
4 years agoRight-hander Jordan Zimmermann, a two-time All-Star who threw the first no-hitter in Washington Nationals history, announced his retirement from Major League Baseball on Tuesday after 13 seasons. Zimmermann had been pitching for the Milwaukee Brewers this year and had a 7.94 ERA in 5 2/3 innings pitched, with the final appearance of his career coming last Friday when he threw two scoreless innings against the Miami Marlins. He was selected in the second round by the Nationals in 2007 out of Division III Wisconsin-Stevens Point and went 70-50 with a 3.32 ERA with Washington from 2009 to 2015. The 34-year-old finished seventh in the Cy Young voting in 2013 when he won a career-high 19 games. Zimmermann finishes with a career record of 95-91 with a 4.07 ERA.
