He was one of my favorites.   I remember watching the 1984 Tigers vs Padres.   The Tiger's pitching staff was able to slow his  batting average in the world series.    That was the year he led the league in hits (213) and batting averages (.351).   Against the Tigers in 1984 he had 5 hits and batted .263.

Small sample size. Only 19 ABs. One more hit and it would have been .316.

Got a tweet you'd like to share about Tony Gwynn? They're not hard to find.

Tony Gwynn had more 4-hit games than he did 2-strikeout games.

Didn’t get to see him play that much as he was west coast and national league. But he was fun the few times it did see him like in All Star games.

Classy guy. Lived about a mile from me in Poway,Ca. It was nice to have one good player you knew wasn’t going to be traded or team hop for more money. As the story goes he wanted to stay in place for his family.
