Former All-Star catcher Jonathan Lucroy announces retirement

MILWAUKEE -- Former All-Star catcher Jonathan Lucroy says he is retiring, more than a year after playing his last major league game.

The Milwaukee Brewers said Tuesday that Lucroy will be inducted into the team's wall of honor on Saturday. Lucroy played for the Brewers from 2010 to 2016 and was an All-Star in 2014 and 2016.

Lucroy, 36, hasn't played in the majors since appearing in seven games last season for Washington and Atlanta. His final game was for the Braves at Miami on July 10 last year and he became a free agent on July 22 when he refused an outright assignment to Triple-A Gwinnett.
