Rawlings Gold Glove Pendant
Small gold pendant presented alongside Tony Gwynn’s Rawlings Gold Glove Award, symbolizing his excellence in fielding.
Description
Tony Gwynn was celebrated for his precision at the plate, but his defense was equally respected, earning him five Rawlings Gold Glove Awards between 1986 and 1991. Each Gold Glove Award came with a companion pendant, a miniature version of the full trophy designed as a keepsake. This Rawlings pendant, shaped as a gold fielding glove, reflects Gwynn’s achievements as one of the most complete players of his generation. Displayed with its original presentation card and box, it represents the pride Gwynn took in his all-around game—proof that he wasn’t just the league’s most consistent hitter, but also an outfielder who elevated his craft. Collectors will recognize this as a rare and personal extension of baseball’s most prestigious defensive honor.
