a change of career

Not your usual headline.  A minor league baseball player: "retires to pursue priesthood."  Reports mlb.com:

OAKLAND -- The A's announced Friday that Grant Desme, the only player in Minor League Baseball to go 30-30 in 2009, has decided to retire from the game in order to pursue the priesthood.

He was only in Single A; at 23 years old he had little chance of making the major leagues.  Nonetheless, it must have been a tough decision, and it shows quite a commitment to his new vocation.
