Tony Gwynn Fielding photograph

Datebetween 1985 and 1994

DescriptionA black-and-white full-length action photograph of Tony Gwynn fielding. Gwynn, shown in profile, wears a San Diego Padres home uniform. Fielding the ball, captured mid-jump, both Gwynn's straight, right leg and bent, left leg are off the ground. Pressing his left hand against the outfield wall for stability, wearing a glove on his right, Gwynn reaches his right arm over his head to catch the ball. Visible just above Gwynn's extended glove is the ball. Based on the specific design of the uniform worn by Gwynn, a pinstripe uniform that lacks piping, this image dates from 1985, when San Diego introduced pinstripe uniforms, and 1994, when they added piping to the jersey.
