\n DETROIT \u2014 Ron Gardenhire mostly maintained his jovial demeanor this season. As recently as Friday night, he was needling a reporter while discussing a strategic decision from the late innings.<\/p>\n

Less than 24 hours later, Gardenhire announced his retirement. This year was taking more of a toll on the 62-year-old Detroit Tigers manager than he\u2019d necessarily let on.<\/p>\n

As much as he enjoyed managing, Gardenhire valued his health more.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been wonderful here, but I also know I have to take care of myself,\u201d said Gardenhire, who was nearing the end of his third season with the Tigers. \u201cWhen you come to the ballpark, and you\u2019re stressed out all day, and your hands are shaking, that\u2019s not fun. I\u2019ve got grandbabies, I\u2019ve got kids that I need to take care of, and my wife.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gardenhire\u2019s announcement came in an abruptly scheduled video conference about an hour before Saturday night\u2019s game<\/a> against Cleveland. General<\/a> manager Al Avila said he made a routine visit to Gardenhire\u2019s office Saturday, when the manager told him about the decision.<\/p>\n

Gardenhire, who has battled cancer and diabetes, recently missed a couple games because of stomach issues.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is tough. It\u2019s a tough day for me. Didn\u2019t expect it, tell you the truth, when I walked in,\u201d Gardenhire said. \u201cBut I just know how I\u2019ve been feeling lately, and I expressed that to Al, and elected to just go ahead and step down.\u201d<\/p>\n

A message of \u201cThank you, Gardy\u201d was posted on the scoreboard at Comerica Park.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn behalf of all of us with the Detroit Tigers, congratulations to Ron Gardenhire on a tremendous managerial career,\u201d Tigers CEO Christopher Ilitch said in a statement. \u201cOne of the best baseball men around, we\u2019re fortunate to have had Gardy lead our team for the past three seasons, and during this rebuilding period. He has done a great job in shaping the future successes I know our organization will see.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bench coach Lloyd McClendon is taking over as manager for the rest of the season, which is scheduled to end Sept. 27. Detroit was 21-29 heading into Saturday\u2019s game and was unlikely to make the postseason.<\/p>\n

Gardenhire previously had a 13-year run with the Minnesota Twins that included six AL Central titles.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019d like to congratulate Gardy on one of the best managerial careers, really in major league baseball history,\u201d Avila said. \u201cHis leadership and hard work over the last three seasons has put us in a position to get closer to our goal of bringing back winning baseball to Detroit.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gardenhire had to oversee a significant rebuild with the Tigers that included a 114-loss season in 2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe took us through the toughest two years of the transition. This year, this third season, probably as tough as any, just because of the pandemic,\u201d Avila said. \u201cThe COVID-19 over your head, all the new changes \u2026 the stress level was through the roof.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gardenhire\u2019s surprise retirement came as the Indians were getting ready to play their 38th game without their manager, Terry Francona, who has been sidelined after undergoing surgery for a gastrointestinal issue and some blood clotting complications which followed the procedure.<\/p>\n

The 61-year-old Francona, who is in his eighth year with Cleveland, still hopes to return before this season ends.<\/p>\n

Whoever takes over the Detroit managerial job will be tasked with guiding the team through an important stage in its process. Pitching prospects Casey Mize and Tarik Skubal had a chance to get some experience in the majors this year, and other young players will be crucial over the next couple seasons.<\/p>\n

Gardenhire took over for longtime Twins manager Tom Kelly and managed Minnesota from 2002-14, going 1,068-1,039. Minnesota won the division six times in his first nine seasons at the helm, and he was American League Manager of the Year in 2010. <\/p>\n

He was a bench coach for the Arizona Diamondbacks before returning to the AL Central with the Tigers for the 2018 season. Detroit was 132-241 under Gardenhire.<\/p>\n

Gardenhire played five seasons in the majors, all with the New York Mets, and was a light-hitting infielder in the 1980s.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlways, you\u2019ll miss baseball,\u201d Gardenhire said. \u201cYou miss the game, but you miss the people in it, the coaches, the staff here. Those are the tough things, but I\u2019m only a phone call away. \u2026 I won\u2019t just go away totally. This is just a moment, I know I have to take care of myself right now and get myself back to where I need to be.<\/p>\n

\u201cI app<\/a>reciate baseball for everything they\u2019ve given me and my family, and it\u2019s been a good career.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n
