Description

Tony Gwynn recorded the 2,186th hit of his Hall of Fame career on August 1, 1994, against the Los Angeles Dodgers, collecting the milestone hit off former Cy Young Award winner Orel Hershiser during one of the greatest offensive seasons in modern baseball history. The strike-shortened 1994 campaign ended with Gwynn batting .394, the highest single-season average of the modern era since Ted Williams hit .406 in 1941.


Signed by Tony Gwynn and preserved in his personal collection, this Rawlings commemorative baseball is marked with the date, opponent, and career hit total to recognize that achievement. Rather than being the baseball used during the game, it was created as a commemorative keepsake celebrating the milestone and serves as a reminder of a season that remains one of the finest displays of pure hitting in baseball history.


Disclaimer:

This is a commemorative baseball signed by Tony Gwynn from his personal collection and is not the actual game-used baseball from Tony Gwynn's 2,186th career hit. Condition may vary slightly from photos, with unique marks that highlight the item's authenticity as a career artifact. This item features a Silver OVD, indicating that a TRuEST™ authenticator was not on-site to witness the signing. However, its provenance is verified through the Tony Gwynn Estate, ensuring its authenticity as a personally signed piece.
