Tony Gwynn: 15-Time All-Star

Tony Gwynn is simply Mr. Padre, the heart and soul of this franchise for over two decades. Named to 15 All-Star Games, he was one of the most gifted pure hitters the game has ever seen, a man who made contact look like an art form. Every Padres fan cave deserves something that honors his legacy, because there will never be another quite like him.

Trevor Hoffman: 6-Time All-Star

When that AC/DC intro music hit and Trevor Hoffman jogged in from the bullpen, Petco Park came alive in a way that still gives fans chills. A six-time All-Star, Hoffman was one of the most dominant closers of his era and the anchor of some of the most exciting Padres teams in history. He defined what it meant to be a Padre with quiet intensity and an almost unhittable changeup.
