Two of Steve Garvey’s former teammates just endorsed ... not Steve Garvey for U.S. Senate
LA TimesU.S. Senate candidates, from left, Rep. Barbara Lee, Steve Garvey, Rep. Adam B. Schiff and Rep. Katie Porter on the debate stage in San Francisco on Feb. 12. Dusty Baker and Dave Stewart are among five former major leaguers listed as endorsers in an announcement issued by Lee’s office Wednesday. Lee is running fourth in polling for California’s vacant Senate seat, with Rep. Adam B. Schiff comfortably ahead and Garvey and Rep. Katie Porter fighting for second. “As a longtime A’s fan,” Lee said in a statement, “it means the world to me to have the support of A’s greats who have contributed so much to our community in Oakland and the East Bay.” After the A’s unveiled plans to move to Las Vegas, Lee introduced what she called the “Moneyball Act,” which would strip Major League Baseball of its cherished antitrust exemption if a team that moves does not provide financial compensation to its old hometown.
