You’re right, Garvey did do most of his damage with the Dodgers, but SD wouldn’t have won its first pennant (1984) without him. The Pads were probably a little trigger-happy with that particular jersey retirement, but 1984 meant a lot to the organization and city.

Steve Garvey? am I missing something? I could have sworn he did most of his damage with the Dodgers.

The classy and right thing to do. Would that the Mariners would take note and retire Edgar’s number already.
