Curtis Granderson, known as much for charity and international work as on-field success that included two trips to the World Series, retired Friday after 16 Major League Baseball seasons. The 38-year-old outfielder from Chicago spent last season with the Miami Marlins after stints with the Detroit Tigers, New York Yankees, New York Mets, Los Angeles Dodgers, Toronto Blue Jays and Milwaukee Brewers. Granderson won his fourth Man of the Year award from the MLB players union for his charitable work and the 2016 Roberto Clemente award for his work with inner city youth, having sponsors give money for his endorsement work to create youth programs and ballparks in cities.
