Re: Trevor Hoffman
With 10 games left to play i think he has a good chance. It would be nice to see him do it this weekend since it is the Padres final homestand. If he can't do it in San Diego the Padres next series is in St.Louis and if he does it there the St.Louis fans will cheer him as if he was one of their own players.Comment

Re: Trevor Hoffman
If that were to happen, it'd be the second time in consecutive years Hoffman has reached a milestone in St. Louis. Last year he earned his 400th career save there. However, there was little mention of it on ESPN that day.Comment

Re: Trevor Hoffman
Hoffman is in the game now attempting save 478.
Edit: There it is, a one-two-three inning and Hoffman is now tied.Last edited by BatsareBugs; 09-23-2006, 11:06 PM.Comment

Re: Trevor Hoffman
2-1 Padres, going to the bottom of the eighth. An insurance run would be nice, but Hoffy may have a chance to save out the last home game of the year and take the record at the same time.Comment

Re: Trevor Hoffman
Number 479, I wonder if Lee Smith was able to make it to this game (the Padres, MLB, and Hoffman all invited him over the weekend, but he had something that he couldn't get out of already planned).
That changeup goes a long way helping Hoffy get the record. It's almost amazing how he was almost not a Padre this past offseason. Next up is #500Comment

Re: Trevor Hoffman
Congrats to Trevor Hoffman.
Well deservant of it. My favorite kind of player. Doesn't say much, just goes out there and most of the time gets the job done."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

Congrats to Hoffman.
Rivera pitching til '10? I certainly don't see that. I don't know that it'd take him that long to break it either. All depends on when Hoffman calls it quits."You make your name in the regular season, and your fame in the postseason." - Clyde Frazier
