Tony Gwynn’s Game-Used Jersey: A Tribute to “Mr. Padre”

Celebrating a Baseball Legend

Tony Gwynn, affectionately known as “Mr. Padre,” stands as one of the most illustrious figures in Major League Baseball history. His remarkable career is highlighted by an impressive collection of accolades, including eight National League batting titles and seven Silver Slugger Awards. A 15-time All-Star, Gwynn’s legacy is immortalized with his No. 19 jersey retired by the San Diego Padres and his induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame on the first ballot in 2007.

A Jersey of Distinction

This exceptional piece of baseball memorabilia is a testament to Gwynn’s enduring impact on the sport. The jersey features the iconic “PADRES” across the chest and the player number “19” on the back, crafted in navy blue on white on orange triple tackle twill. The player name “GWYNN” is elegantly displayed in navy blue tackle twill, sewn directly onto the pinstripe jersey.

• Manufacturer’s Tag: The front left tail bears a “RUSSELL ATHLETIC” size “44” tag with washing instructions, accompanied by a “100% POLYESTER” flag tag.
• Autographs: Gwynn’s signature, though faded, graces the front below “PADRES,” while a more prominent autograph with the inscription “HOF 07” adorns the back player number “1.”
• Embroidered Details: The right sleeve features a Russell Athletic logo, and the left sleeve boasts a commemorative patch celebrating the Padres’ 25th anniversary.
