Tony Gwynn was one of the most accurate hitters who
could expand his hitting zone with very wide contact.
His philosophy was to "SEE THE BALL AND REACT".
Unlike his appearance he was not a slugger.
After he retired from playing,
the San Diego Padres retired his No.19 in 2004.
His batting average was always over 0.3 for
15 YEARS!!!
0.35 for 5 consecutive years and records
highest batting average of 0.394.
Tony Gwynn is one of the 46 players in the
Hall of Fame who played their entire major league
career for only one team. His son Tony Gwynn, Jr. is
also an American professional baseball player.
