Carlos Ruiz is planning to come back for more baseball

Carlos Ruiz and his former teammates won a World Series together, beat a lot of teams together, and thrilled a generation of Delaware Valley baseball fans together. They also declined together, lost together, and have scattered to different teams (not together), and now, together, as they climb in age and lower in productivity (in baseball), those who have not stepped away into civilian life to author children’s books (Ryan Howard), be with family (Jimmy Rollins), or construct a new society among the tree tops of rural Arkansas (Cliff Lee), face the annual question of whether or not they will return to the sport for another go.
