Andy Pettitte officially announced his retirement during a press conference on Friday, explaining that he no longer has the "hunger" to pitch another season. He said "it was an easy decision, but it wasn't an easy decision." As recently as two weeks ago, he thought he would return for another season. The left-hander said that his body was in shape to pitch but "my heart's not where it needs to be." "It just didn't feel right for me anymore," he said. "I didn't have the hunger, the drive I felt like I needed."
