2001 American League Retirements

2001 N.L. Retirements

	Find out which players made their Major League debut in the American League during the 2001 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.
