1985 American League Retirements

1985 N.L. Retirements

	Find out which players made their Major League debut in the American League during the 1985 season as this group of players bid farewell to their field's of dreams. Hank Aaron ended his Major League career on October 3, 1976, with a sharp single during the sixth inning off Dave Roberts of the Detroit Tigers. Goose Goslin played for eighteen seasons and averaged one-hundred twenty-seven games played per season. In 1938, during his final at-bat, he twisted his back and was replaced at the plate by a pinch-hitter for the first time in his Major League career.
