Steve Garvey
3 April 2008
n-scoring single, while defensively, he set the MLB record for consecutive errorless games, passing Steve Garvey’s mark of 193, set back in the mid-80s. In a classy move, the Athletics gave him first base, which he then proceeded to have signed by his teammates. His sites are now set on the “successful offensive chances at first base” mark (1,700; he’s 72 away) set by former Red Sox (and Cleveland Indian) first baseman, Stuffy McInnis, back in the early 20s.
