No one ever accused doughy Tony of using roids...The best hitter to ever come out of San Diego was not Tony Gwynn, wow. He joined Ted Williams up in hitters heaven way too soon
@@TheBatugan77 Absolutely, same with Babe Ruth. Ruth always said it's the pins that go meaning the legs and said late in his career if they allowed him to pinch hit for the pitcher all the time he could have kept playing. There was no concept of the term Designated Hitter in the early 1930's but Ruth referred to being a permanent pinch hitter.
2:10... I was there! I was a season tickets holder from 1996-2001. I remember seeing Ted in that red ballcap.
Damn I baseball, great to hear two masters of the craft and their approach, there is so much to this game

Two amazing hitter showing respect for each other.Ted had a long fulfilling life, shame that Tony Gwynn was taken way to young,he was a class guy.

If the DH had been in place, Ted could've hit till he was 50.
