Jennie Finch, one of the most recognized and decorated players in US Softball history, is set to retire from the sport in August. Finch, 29, leaves softball with a gold medal from the 2004 Olympics in Athens, a silver medal from the Beijing Olympics, and this year helped the US win its seventh straight world championship. A star on and off the field, Finch went on to star on Celebrity Apprentice and gained fame from striking out several Major League Baseball players on “This Week In Baseball”.

Softball Rampage salutes Jennie for a tremendous career.
