Trevor William Hoffman (born October 13, 1967, Bellflower, California) is a right-handed relief pitcher in Major League Baseball for the Milwaukee Brewers. A long-time closer, he is currently the Major Leagues' all-time leader in saves with 590, having broken the previous record held by Lee Smith on September 24, 2006. He is considered extremely likely to be elected to the Hall of Fame and would join the five other closers who have received that honor.
He often accompanied his father, to California Angels games. His older brother is the former major league shortstop, Glenn Hoffman, who played from 1980–1989 for the Boston Red Sox, Los Angeles Dodgers, and California Angels and briefly managed the Dodgers in 1998. He and his brother both attended and played for Savanna High School.
