Game-Used Alternate Home Jersey with Inscription for Hit #2997 – (August 4, 1999) vs. STL

Alternate navy Padres jersey, game-used and inscribed with "2997 8/4/99 vs. Cardinals", commemorating Tony Gwynn’s remarkable performance on August 4, 1999, when he recorded his 2,997th career hit. Gwynn went 3-for-4 with 3 RBIs that day, and hit #2997 came in the form of a grand slam in the top of the 5th inning, marking another milestone in his legendary career.

The jersey features #19 on the front, with "Gwynn" on the back, and is a piece of history that ties directly to Gwynn’s pursuit of 3,000 hits. Notably, on this same day, Gwynn also notched hits #2996, #2997, and #2998, as he inched closer to the coveted 3,000-hit mark.

This jersey represents a significant moment in baseball history and is a must-have for collectors of Mr. Padre’s memorabilia.
