Tony Gwynn 3000th Hit Celebration photograph

Dateafter 1999 August 06
DescriptionA 3/4 length color photograph of (from left to right) Jeff Idelson, Tony Gwynn, and Dale Petroskey. Idelson, Vice President of Communications and Education at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, and Petroskey, President of the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, both wear suits, ties, and Hall of Fame pins on their lapels. Idelson, left, angling his body in towards Gwynn, holds waist height in his right hand, the end cap of Gwynn's baseball bat that he used to earn his 3,000th hit. Turning his head to his left, Idelson looks down to the bat. Gwynn, center, wears a San Diego Padres alternate uniform. Gwynn holds the barrel of the same bat in his left hand, waist height, in front of his body, while also holding a microphone in his right hand, resting it against his chest. Facing the camera, Gwynn looks forward and down at the bat. Petroskey, right, holds the head of the bat with his right hand. In his left hand, Petroskey holds the cleats and helmet worn by Gwynn when he broke 3,000, waist height. Smiling, Petroskey turns his head to his right, to look down at the bat as well. The notation, "#3000," written in black, is visible on the bat. Behind this group several people sitting in the infield are visible. An occupied stadium can also be seen in the distance. Based on the notation present on the bat held by all three men, this image was taken after August 6, 1999, the day Gwynn completed his 3,000th hit.
