Yes.

As a baseball fan (Giants fan), the overlooking of Gwynn was inexcusable (I did not watch the wall-to-wall coverage so I assumed I missed it until I started reading articles like this one). Consider: who did Ted Williams seek out of this generation of ballplayer when he wanted to talk hitting? Gwynn always

Yeah, but you realize this comment pretty much makes you THE MOST BITTER JEZZIE, right?

Anyone else remember the "Steve Garvey Is [Not]My Padre" bumper stickers after he was named in a paternity suit?

oh my gosh, those ears! :3

With all due respect, you're wrong.

I still have a chip on my shoulder that Gwynn wasn't unanimously elected to the HoF. I never met Ripken myself, so I can't speak about him personally, but I have met Tony Gwynn on several occasions and I know there is absolutely no way he ever rubbed anybody the wrong way. Any time you see a legendary player not

Is there any video of the Glenn Burke acknowledgement? I've checked around and am not finding anything on MLB.com or in general.

When Jeter dies I hope the all star game uses only baseballs that Jeter signed to women that he fucked.

Apparently, you also have never heard of commas or capitalization.

As a fellow Tony, I must say Im saddened that Gwynn didn't get a mention at all, the guy was an incredible contact hitter and beyond that, a great person. A better man than Jeter and his gift baskets. His batting averages are ridiculous looking at them season by season. How could they forget? It happened very

I had a bit of a chip on my shoulder about the whole Gwynn/Ripken thing until their HOF induction ceremony. Those of us from San Diego were far outnumbered by O's fans, which was to be expected. They were stoked to be there for Ripken, but they had a deep admiration for the player and man Tony Gwynn was and weren't

I was really annoyed to see that neither FOX nor MLB saw fit to pay tribute to Tony in any way... but honestly, I'm not surprised. My greatest fear for Tony was that his decision to stay in San Diego would lead to him being forgotten or dismissed by the greater sports world. That obviously didn't happen. When he

Better hitter for sure, but they're two guys cut from the same cloth. No need to really say one is better than the other.

The Padres then tweeted out this picture in honor of their other hero, Ken Caminiti.

Handjob? I was amazed the worst announcer in sports could do anything else while deep throating Jeter.

He is definitely known as Mr Padre, at least around San Diego

I was pretty disappointed they didnt have a moment of a silence,tribute or even mention tony in passing considering how much he meant to everyone around the league.The Padres just posted this picture on twitter with no caption, i thought it was a pretty tasteful tribute/dig at fox.

how could one even have time to think of Gwynn when we were amidst our love affair with Joe Buck and all his lovely tales. which by the way, why didn't they find a way for Vin Scully to do the game in his last season?
