A’s Pitcher Trevor May Announces Retirement, Calls Owner John Fisher ‘A Dork’

Oakland A’s pitcher Trevor May has announced his retirement from baseball – via a Twitch stream.

“I have a thousand things that I want to do, a million things… everything I enjoy outside of the game has just lit me up, and I really enjoy doing it. I love talking pitching. I love talking about the game, I love teaching people about the game… This isn’t the end of my relationship with baseball. If anything, I’ll do more stuff with the game. But I want to go out on my own terms,” he said.

May had a nine-year career in the MLB, spending the final year in the Oakland A’s. He finished with a 3.28 ERA and 40 strikeouts in 46 2/3 innings. He was the A’s closer. He finished his nine-year career with a 4.24 ERA over his time with the Minnesota Twins, New York Mets and Oakland A’s.

He also criticized the owner, John Fisher, while announcing his retirement.

“Sell the team, dude…. Sell it, man. Let someone who actually, like, takes pride in the things they own, own something. There’s actually people who give a s— about the game. Let them do it. Take mommy and daddy’s money somewhere else, dork,” he said on the same stream.

Fisher’s ownership of the A’s has been heavily scrutinized, mainly because of his attempts to relocate the A’s to Las Vegas and the team’s poor performance. The team finished 50-112 this season, a major league-worst.
