Dodgers’ Daniel Hudson Announces Retirement After 2024 World Series Win
Los Angeles Dodgers reliever Daniel Hudson announced his retirement from Major League Baseball after the team’s World Series win vs. the New York Yankees.
“This was the only reason I came back,” Hudson said to reporters after the team’s 7-6 win in Game 5 of the World Series. “To go out on top. And that’s what’s happening.”

Hudson got up to warm up in the bullpen during Game 5 on Wednesday night, ready to potentially enter the game. However, he didn’t end up coming in, as Blake Treinen finished the eighth inning, and Walker Buehler pitched the ninth inning. Treinen got seven outs, while Buehler got the final three as the Dodgers came back to beat the Yankees and win the 2024 World Series.

So Hudson’s final appearance of his career was in Game 4 of the World Series at Yankee Stadium on Tuesday.
Hudson, 37, is now a two-time World Series champion. He got the final out of the 2019 World Series as a member of the Washington Nationals. Now, he has officially won his second World Series title in 2024 as a member of the Dodgers during his second stint with the team.
Hudson was drafted in the fifth round of the 2008 MLB Draft by the Chicago White Sox. He debuted in 2009, which was the first of his 15-year MLB career.
Hudson made just three appearances in 2023 with the Dodgers after tearing his ACL in 2022. Then, he returned in 2024, and made 65 appearances, sporting a 3.00 ERA as one of the Dodgers’ best arms all year long.
Hudson made seven appearances in the postseason, five of them scoreless. He didn’t allow a run in the NLDS, and allowed one in the NLCS. In the World Series, he allowed a grand slam in Game 4.
Hudson has spent time with the White Sox, Arizona Diamondbacks, Pittsburgh Pirates, Dodgers, Toronto Blue Jays, Nationals, and San Diego Padres throughout his career. He spent time as both a starting pitcher and reliever, and was a reliable arm for so many years.
Now that he has his second ring, though, he’s ready to hang things up. He’ll always be remembered for his major role on two World Series teams.
