The late great Tony Gwynn was a member of baseballs exclusive 3000 Hit Club but he also registered a total of 1138 runs batted in during his prolific 20-year career with the San Diego Padres. One of his milestone RBI (No. 626) which tied him for the Padres all-time lead with Hall of Famer Dave Winfield occurred on July 26 1993 against the Chicago Cubs. In the game which was won by the Cubs 9-6 Gwynns team-record-tying RBI came by way of a solo home run off Cubs southpaw Paul Assenmacher in the seventh inning. This lot includes the official National League (White) baseball that Gwynn hit for the record-tying RBI. The game-used ball includes a special callout in black ink that reads: HR off Chi Assenmacher to tie Winfield in all time RBIs.
Includes Letter of Authenticity from the Gwynn Family.
