Former New York Yankee and playoff hero Aaron Boone has announced his retirement Tuesday. The former All-Star and 2003 ALCS hero played the game with honor and passion over his 12-year career with the Cincinnati Reds, New York Yankees, Cleveland Indians, Florida Marlins, Washington Nationals and Astros. He'll forever be remembered for his game-winning 11th inning homer off Tim Wakefield in Game 7 of the 2003 ALCS against the Boston Red Sox. He is the last of the Boone family in Major League Baseball for now. His grandfather Ray Boone, and father Bob Boone, along with his older brother Bret Boone all played the great game. He concludes his remarkable career with a .263 batting average with 126 homers and 555 RBI. Aaron will appear on "Baseball Tonight" beginning in March. He worked for ESPN Radio during the 2009 NL division series. Congratulations Aaron on a great MLB Career and becoming a piece of New York Yankee history forever.
