The Salt Lake Stingers confirmed Andy Fox's retirement today.
In his nine years in the Major Leagues, Fox appeared in a total 776 games for the Yankees, Diamondbacks, Marlins, Expos and Rangers. While his numbers never accurately represented his career, the utility man showed the mark of a true teammate by his willingness to "take one for the team". He was known for his ability to play all positions including a perfect outing towing the rubber for Arizona in 1999. His popularity with the fans is evidenced in the sheer number of people reading this message.
We here at the Andy Fox Fan Club congratulate Andy on living the dream. Andy, we will miss you on the field, but look forward to watching your coaching career bloom.
