He was a Dodger for three injury and cheers-filled seasons, but for this morning's announcement Garciaparra returned to the Boston Red Sox on a one-day contract so he could say he retired with the team where the fans truly loved him. Out of St. John Bosco High School in Bellflower, Garciaparra played 14 seasons in the majors but due to injuries was done as a star by the age of 32. Official reason for retirement: "daughter wants Daddy home." He ends with a .313 lifetime batting average and hit as many as 35 homers in a season. His wife, the soccer star Mia Hamm, attended his emotional press conference in Fort Myers, Fla. Garciaparra will be an analyst in "Baseball Tonight." The video interview is with Gordon Edes, the former L.A. Times Dodgers writer.
