Garvey made his MLB with the Dodgers at 20 years old in 1969 and played with them until 1982. He was a valued member of their 1981 World Series team, remembered for both his consistent bat and stellar defense. Garvey played in 1,727 games over 14 seasons with the Dodgers.
While Garvey was productive at the plate, after becoming a member of the San Diego Padres in 1982, he set an MLB record by not committing an error in the field for 150 games in a row during the 1984 season. Furthermore, Garvey holds the National League record with consecutive games played at 1,207.
