  Jason LaRue上個月在紅人和紅雀的衝突事件時被Johnny Cueto踢到頭部，造成嚴重
的腦震盪，打算退休。LaRue原本要對Cueto提出告訴，不過最後決定算了。

  Jason LaRue 生涯在大聯盟打滾了12年，3103個打席中成績是 .231/.315/.396，曾經
曾經效力過紅人隊、皇家隊、以及紅雀隊。

It wasn't the way he wanted to go out, but Jason LaRue tells Joe Strauss of the
St. Louis Post-Dispatch that he has played his last game in the majors. LaRue
suffered a severe concussion when he was kicked in the head by Johnny Cueto in
the Cardinals/Reds brawl last month, and doesn't want to risk further head
injuries by continuing his career.

"I'm done. It's a simple decision," LaRue said. "As a catcher you're so
vulnerable to getting another (concussion). All it takes a foul ball to the
head. Even as a backup that happened 3-5 times last year. It's not a question
of if it would happen again, it's when. Nobody can guarantee anything. It'll
probably be worse."

According to Strauss, friends of LaRue say the 36-year-old was considering
taking legal action against Cueto for the on-field assault, but ultimately
decided against it. Still, he's disappointed with the way his career had to
end: "I was going to retire on my own terms.... Does it suck that my career is
over because Johnny Cueto started kicking me in the head? Yes, it sucks."

Although he played in just 29 games this season, LaRue hit .231/.315/.396 in
3103 career plate appearances, spending time with the Reds, Royals, and
Cardinals. According to Baseball-Reference, the backstop earned $19.44MM over
the course of his 12-year career.
