Utley reportedly to announce retirement plans

LOS ANGELES -- Dodgers infielder Chase Utley will hold a news conference today at Dodger Stadium, and reports surfaced that the topic will be his retirement.

Utley, 39, will announce that he will retire at the end of the season, MLB Network insider Joel Sherman of the New York Post reported.

A news conference for the media-averse Utley is out of character, but there was no indication from the club or him that he is hanging up the spikes immediately on a career that many believe will send him to the Hall of Fame. The news conference is scheduled to begin at 3:15 p.
