Hoffman nabs Delivery Man honors

"Trevor Hoffman's May perfection has earned the Milwaukee Brewers reliever yet another laurel. On Friday, the record-holding closer was named the winner of the Major League Baseball Delivery Man of the Month Award for May. The award, chosen by aMLB panel, recognizes the game's outstanding reliever each month. For May, there was little argument that Hoffman was the one. The 41-year-old right-hander not only led the Majors with 11 saves during the month but, in addition to not giving up any leads, he didn't give up much of anything. In 12 appearances, each lasting one inning, Hoffman didn't allow any runs and gave up only four hits and one walk -- his only one of the season. He struck out 11 in the 12 innings. In the first two months of his first season in Milwaukee, Hoffman is holding batters to a .127 average, and his 14 saves have raised his all-time career record to 568."
