Tony Gwynn Videos

Tony Gwynn videos can be found throughout baseball history. Baseball: A film by Ken Burns, was the story of America's national pastime - an epic overflowing with heroes and hopefuls, scoundrels and screwballs. The saga brought to life rare images of baseball players hardly ever seen and in that vein Baseball Almanac is bringing to you Tony Gwynn videos that have been researched by hand and specifically chosen to illustrate the life and times of this ballplayer.

"One of the things I'm proudest about is that I played for one team. My baseball card looks awesome because it has San Diego all the way down. I grew up in an environment where that kind of stuff was important." - Tony Gwynn on MLB.com (12/27/2006, Barry M. Bloom, 'Tony Gwynn heading for the Hall of Fame')

Sponsored by John Ryan in appreciation for Baseball Almanac's effort to keep Tony Gwynn's baseball memories alive and well.
