Hoffman One Shy Of Smith's All-Time Save Record
Jun 22, 2014 9:44 PM
Trevor Hoffman's next save will be extra-special.
Hoffman recorded his 477th career save Thursday, leaving him only one behind Lee Smith for the all-time record.
The 38-year-old Hoffman worked around a one-out walk in the ninth to seal the Padres' 3-1 victory over the Diamondbacks. He also benefited from a stellar defensive play from center fielder Mike Cameron, who chased down a fly ball off the bat of leadoff hitter Eric Byrnes.
