In the end, the San Diego Padres threw Trevor Hoffman a changeup. As the ceremony to retire Hoffman's No. 51 was winding down Sunday, the Padres played a video of his father, Ed, singing the national anthem on opening day at Fenway Park in 1981, when Glenn Hoffman played shortstop for the Boston Red Sox.
