Baseball jersey from Trevor Hoffman, former Padres pitcher, signed 'Mr. Mayor, All the Best'. Mayor Sanders began his 2012 State of the City address with 'A rare benefit of being mayor is that, if you work hard and get enough done, they let you choose your own entrance music. So for tonight, I chose the anthem Trevor Hoffman used all those years we watched him close games for the Padres. That song is now a part of our civic identity, and it evokes two important qualities. First: fearlessness. And second: closing the deal.'
