GEM MINT GWYNN!!! Few hitters were better than Tony Gwynn for his 20 Major League seasons in San Diego, other than perhaps Ted Williams, as they share the distinction of being the best to never win a World Series. Absolutely nothing wrong with this GEM MINT copy of Tony Gwynn on his 1983 Topps rookie card. When the Pride of the Padres stepped to the plate, San Diegans stopped and watched in awe.
