Andrew Heaney, who pitched for two World Series-winning teams, announced his retirement on Sunday afternoon in a social media post.
The left-hander spent time with six teams over 12 big league seasons, during which he racked up 56 wins, 1,156 strikeouts and a 4.57 ERA.
Heaney began his career with the Marlins after Miami selected him with the ninth overall pick in the 2012 Draft. He spent the majority of his career, however, with the Angels -- seven seasons from 2015-21. Heaney also pitched for the Yankees ('21), Dodgers ('22 and '25), Rangers (2023-24) and Pirates ('25).
It was during that two-year stint with the Rangers that Heaney played a pivotal role in helping Texas win the 2023 World Series. Along with posting his first career 10-win campaign during the regular season, Heaney earned the win in Game 4 of the World Series, tossing five innings of one-run ball against the D-backs to bring the Rangers within one victory of the title.
Heaney's retirement post included a photo of him holding that World Series trophy, along with a message in which he thanked his family, teammates, coaches and fans, among others.
Heaney posted, in part: "Over 10 years of Major League service time, three Roberto Clemente Award nominations, winning Game 4 of the World Series and becoming a World Series champion in 2023, playing Major League Baseball has been a unique honor and privilege."
The 34-year-old Heaney began this past season with the Pirates before being released on Aug. 29. He signed with the eventual World Series-champion Dodgers a few days later, though he made just one regular-season appearance down the stretch, Sept. 27 at Seattle.
"I am now ready to return my focus and energy to being a husband, father, family man and active member of my community," Heaney wrote. "I'm retiring from baseball, but I hope to give back more than I received."
