Justin Verlander announced on Wednesday that this season would be the last of his career<\/a>. His return to the Detroit Tigers hasn’t gone as planned.<\/p>\n

He’s given up five earned runs in just three and two thirds innings of work due to injury. Even more disappointing than those numbers was the wasted bikini welcoming<\/a> Sports Illustrated Swimsuit had for him ahead of what was supposed to be his first home start back in April.<\/p>\n

Verlander missed that start and hasn’t pitched in a game since his first start of the season in Arizona back in March. His retirement announcement came after Major League Baseball revealed<\/a> that he had been selected to his 10th All-Star Game as a “Legend Pick.”<\/p>\n

The game of baseball has told him it’s time to hang it up. The All-Star and retirement announcements have come, as you would expect, with a look back at his Hall of Fame-worthy career.<\/p>\n

The 2006 AL Rookie of the Year and 2011 MVP has three Cy Young Awards to his name. He has two World Series rings and three no-hitters to go along with his other accolades.<\/p>\n

Verlander is also eighth on the all-time strikeout list with a real shot at seventh place, needing only 21 more strikeouts to pass Don Sutton.<\/p>\n

As with any mention of his career achievements, the internet, as you would also expect, has made sure to give a well-earned hat tip to his wife, Kate Upton<\/a>. A legend in her own right.<\/p>\n

You really can’t tell the full story of Justin Verlander’s remarkable career without a mention of the four-time SI Swimsuit cover model<\/a>.<\/p>\n

She’s been there through every high and low. And as he pointed out in his announcement, he couldn’t have done it without her.<\/p>\n

What a career, even if it doesn’t end how one of the best to ever lace up a pair of cleats hoped it would. Again, you’re not sneaking a retirement announcement by the internet without a round of applause for Mrs. Verlander.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
