According to Chris Haft of MLB.com, former San Francisco Giants infielder, Rich Aurilia, has formally announced his retirement.

Aurilia said Sunday that he has asked his agent, Barry Axelrod, to call Giants president Larry Baer on Monday “and basically tell him, ‘Hey, I’m done.’”

Aurilia was at AT&T Park for the San Francisco Giants’ 2000 team reunion over the weekend.  “It’s weird being around here, man,” Aurilia said. “I wanted to grab a bat in the 11th inning the other day when they had guys on third with less than two outs. I miss being around the guys and I miss the competition, but everything else I’m OK with. It’s time for a different phase of my life. I’m actually handling it better than I thought I would, which is good.”

The former All Star was hoping to play one last season. The Brooklyn native was hoping that he could land with either the New York Yankees or New York Mets for one last season. He has a Comcast studio job now that he has officially retired.

Aurilia, 38, has a career .275 batting average with 186 home runs and 756 RBIs. He played two stints with the Giants in addition to the Mariners, Padres and Reds. You can see Aurilia’s contract history and statistics here.
