Brewers' longtime kryptonite finally retiring after storied Cubs career

Though he left the NL Central one year ago in free agency, Kyle Hendricks was always going to be remembered as a Chicago Cub.

Now, after one lone season with the Los Angeles Angels, the soft-tossing right-hander is calling it quits on a storied career that featured decisive starts in Game 6 of the NLCS and Game 7 of the World Series in the Cubs' curse-busting playoff run in 2016.

Source confirms that Kyle Hendricks is retiring, after a long and decorated career that included a World Series Championship, ERA title, and 11 seasons with the Cubs.
