Tony Gwynn’s death hit me and crushed me unlike any other “celebrity” death I’ve ever experienced. I never met him. Watched him play only as a little child. But as a 22 year old, I sat there and sobbed like a baby as the news broke. #RIP19 #Padres

Happened to find this today. Tony Gwynn didn’t have as big an impact on me in his time on this planet as most people. But seeing how his death affected my mom, dad, and countless other San Diegans, I know Mr. Padre was more than just
@Padres
baseball, he WAS San Diego. RIP Tony.

Tony Gwynn faced Greg Maddux 107 times in his career — more than any other pitcher. He batted .415/.476/.521 against the four-time Cy Young Award winner and Hall of Famer. That’s easily the highest average against Maddux for any player with at least 70 plate appearances. RIP
