Former All-Star center fielder Dexter Fowler is retiring after 14 years in the big leagues, according to a social media post by him. On Tuesday he wrote, “It's here. I'm hanging up my cleats.”

Fowler, 36, played for five different teams in his career, bursting onto the national scene in 2015 and 2016 when he was the leadoff man for the Chicago Cubs.

Chicago lost in the NLCS in '15 but won the World Series the next year, as Fowler was the catalyst for their first title in 108 years.
