Lee was pitching in Triple-A for the Pirates in 1982 when he was designated for assignment. After getting two outs in the ninth inning of a game, the second on a strikeout, Lee walked off the field while removing his jersey. He then announced he planned to quit baseball; Lee said he wanted to strike out the last batter he ever faced.[1]
He was general manager of the Amarillo Dillas and subsequently the Amarillo Sox of the American Association of Independent Professional Baseball from 2006 to 2014.[2]
