RIP Tony Gwynn

[dylbert]

Farewell, Mr Gwynn. As lifelong Astros fan, I admired his body of work. He knew pitchers better than these pitchers knew themselves. Gwynn understood analytics before term 'sabermetrics' was defined.

Tony Gwynn blended art and science of hitting masterfully. In today's environment, I would venture to say he would be shift buster.

Hardest out in baseball. Hands down.

RIP Mr. Gwynn. Incredibly classy gentleman.

Very sorry to hear about the passing of Tony Gwynn. No doubt it, he was a great hitter, but from what I've read and heard, he was an even greater person.
