🧵 3. Recognizable to many Californians, Garvey's baseball career makes him a familiar name, despite potentially being unknown to younger voters.

🧵 4. Garvey, a 10-time All-Star, won NL MVP in 1974 and led Dodgers to five World Series appearances. Can his sports star status translate to political success?

🧵 5. As a Republican candidate in California, Garvey faces an uphill battle in a state dominated by Democrats. But his entrance adds intrigue to the upcoming Senate race.
