Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Daniel Hudson announces retirement following World Series victory.

Bill Plunkett of the OC Register shared the news via Twitter/X.

Hudson played a vital role for the Dodgers in his four years with the club.

The 37-year-old's first stint with the Dodgers came in 2018. He pitched in 40 games (with one start) and was 3–2 with a 4.11 ERA in 46 innings before missing the last month of the season with an arm injury.

After spending a couple of years with a handful of different ball clubs, Hudson returned on a one-year contract for the 2022 season and stayed with the team for the next two seasons.

In his Dodgers career, Hudson tallied an 11-7 record, with a 3.17 ERA, 124 ERA+, 3.84 FIP, and 1.086 WHIP in four total seasons.

Hudson is now a two-time World Series champion and also was a silver slugger.

The Virginia native finished his career with a 3.74 ERA, a 65-45 record, and 43 saves in 547 games.
