NEW YORK — Bud Selig says he means it this time, that he will retire as baseball commissioner in January 2015. After a decade of maintaining his departure was imminent, the 79-year-old baseball commissioner put his exit plans in writing Thursday and said in a statement he will step down after 22 years — the second-longest term behind Kenesaw Mountain Landis. Selig's revolutionary reign produced an $8 billion industry, interleague play, an expanded postseason and two decades of labor peace.
