Los Angeles Dodgers legend Steve Garvey’s playing days are over, but he is not done making an impact in the baseball community. Garvey has partnered with Amgen on an initiative that Major League Baseball started during Blood Cancer Awareness Month, called Myeloma MVP (Most Valuable Plan) to create awareness for multiple myeloma cancer.
Garvey spoke with DodgerBlue.com to discuss the initiative and why he got involved with the cause along with fellow former big leaguers Dave Winfield and Don Baylor Jr.
“That’s question No. 1. Of course you know, that I was blessed to play a number of year in professional baseball and had a certain amount of notoriety,” Garvey said.
