Charlie Culberson announced his retirement from Major League Baseball after playing over parts of 11 seasons with the San Francisco Giants, Colorado Rockies, Los Angeles Dodgers, Atlanta Braves and Texas Rangers.

Culberson last was in the Majors with the Braves in 2023, when he appeared in just one game. It was his second stint with the team as Culberson, a Georgia native, previously played for Atlanta from 2018-2020.

The 35-year-old played in 586 games during his Major League career.

Culberson signed a Minor League contract with the Dodgers in November 2015. An injury to Howie Kendrick created an opportunity on the Dodgers’ Opening Day roster.

Culberson appeared in just 34 games that season but was etched into Dodgers franchise lore as he shared the spotlight with Vin Scully.

With the Dodgers looking to clinch the National League West title in 2016, Culberson hit a walk-off home run against the Rockies on what was Scully’s final home game of his career.

“I honestly don’t know how to describe the feeling,” Culberson said after the walk-off home run. “Best hit I’ve ever hit in my life, best moment in my baseball career.

“This is my first year with Dodgers and I feel like family here. The guys here are unreal, the coaches and fans. I feel like I belong.”

Charlie Culberson career stats

Culberson hit .275/.301/.363 in 83 games over parts of two seasons with the Dodgers.

The Dodgers unexpectedly were forced to rely on Culberson during the 2017 NL Championship Series when Corey Seager missed multiple games because of a minor back injury.

In his Major League career, the utilityman hit .248/.294/.386 with 61 doubles, 30 home runs and 145 RBI.
