MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Minnesota Twins relief pitcher Glen Perkins has confirmed his expected retirement, ending a 12-year major league career with 120 saves.

Perkins announced Wednesday on Twitter that he’s done playing. He says he’ll turn his focus to spending time with his family and will continue cultivating his hobbies including brewing beer, smoking meat and woodworking. “Or the same things I have been doing,” Perkins writes, “just without the baseball part.”
