Bartolo Colón will get a proper MLB sendoff in September, almost a year after he announced his intention to retire from baseball. The New York Mets announced Colón will officially retire as a member of the team on Sept. 17 before a game against the Cincinnati Reds at Citi Field.
Colón, who turned 50 in April, pitched three years with the Mets from 2014 to 2016. Colón's career spanned 21 years and 11 MLB teams. He last saw MLB action in 2018 for the Texas Rangers, with whom he pitched 146 1/3 innings with a 5.78 ERA, 1.346 WHIP and 81 strikeouts.
Colón has a career ERA of 4.12, WHIP of 1.312 and 2,535 career strikeouts. He made four All-Stars and was the 2005 Cy Young winner after leading MLB with 21 wins. Colón was perhaps most known for his first and only career home run. He smacked a dinger to left field in a 2016 game for the Mets against the Padres.Bartolo is still the oldest player in AL/NL history to hit their first home run!
