Tony Gwynn’s Game-Worn Padres Jersey: A Masterpiece of Baseball History

A Tribute to “Mr. Padre”

In the pantheon of baseball legends, few names resonate as profoundly as Tony Gwynn, affectionately known as “Mr. Padre.” An eight-time National League batting champion, Gwynn’s prowess at the plate is matched by only the greatest in the history of the game. His induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2007 on the first ballot is a testament to his extraordinary career. Gwynn’s remarkable achievement of batting .300 or higher for 19 consecutive seasons, excluding his rookie year, remains an unparalleled record in Major League Baseball.

The Jersey: A Testament to Excellence

This exquisite jersey, a relic from Gwynn’s illustrious career, is a piece of baseball memorabilia that captures the essence of his legacy. Inside the collar, the Goodman & Sons manufacturer’s tag, size “48,” with washing instructions, attests to its authenticity. Across the chest, the iconic “PADRES” is emblazoned, while the back proudly displays the player number “19,” both rendered in navy blue on white on orange tackle twill. The player name “GWYNN” graces the back in navy blue tackle twill, completing this masterpiece.

• Historical Significance: Represents Tony Gwynn, a Hall of Famer and one of the greatest hitters in MLB history.
• Impeccable Condition: Despite the third button from the bottom being missing, the jersey is in remarkable condition, a rarity for game-worn items.
• Provenance: Presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows excellent use, accompanied by a Photo-Match.com LOA confirming the match and grading the jersey a perfect 10.
