 | Party's Over: Connor Retires in New York Wednesday, September 7th , 1910 Roger Connor of the Giants is hanging it up. The veteran first baseman reportedly told team officials yesterday that he would not return for another season. "The time has come for me to give up a game I love dearly, but the time is right. Baseball has been good for me and I hope I have been good for baseball." "While we are disappointed Roger will not be playing for us next year, I have a tremendous amount of respect for him and the way he went about this decision," said the New York general manager. Lifetime Connor has played in 1361 games, batted .291 with 183 home runs and 1297 base hits. |   |
