Browning Ends Career After 11 Seasons With Royals
Tom Browning retired from baseball citing the grind of travel and weariness from endless seasons. He ended with a strikeout, one last echo of his 11-year run including a perfect game in 1988 and a World Series title with the Reds before breaking an arm in 1994 and never regaining strength. Browning, 1995 Royals pitcher, said he could not perform to his own standards and would not drop to the minors or switch to relief pitching.
