Steve Garvey
He was the MVP in 1974; He was a ten time All-Star and World Series Champion (1981)
Garvey's individual accolades are numerous, with one of the most notable being his National League (NL) Most Valuable Player Award in 1974. He was also named the NL Championship Series MVP twice, in 1978 with the Dodgers and again in 1984 with the Padres. His walk-off home run in Game Four of the 1984 NLCS remains one of the most iconic moments in Padres history. Garvey was selected to the NL All-Star team ten times, with nine of those selections as the starting first baseman, a record that still stands for his position.
In addition to his on-field achievements, Garvey holds the NL record for consecutive games played, with 1,207 games, a testament to his durability and commitment to the game. After signing with the Padres in 1982, Garvey continued to be a key contributor until his retirement in 1987. The Padres honored his contributions by retiring his No. 6 jersey in 1988, solidifying his legacy within the organization. Off the field, Garvey was also involved in philanthropic efforts, serving as vice president of the organization No Greater Love.
In October 2023, Garvey announced his candidacy for the U.S. Senate as a Republican in the 2024 election for California. He advanced to the general election after finishing second in the March 2024 top-two primary, just behind Democratic Congressman Adam Schiff. Garvey also finished first in the special election primary to replace Laphonza Butler, positioning him as a strong contender in both races. His transition from sports to politics reflects his continued desire to serve and lead, this time in the public arena.
