Description
Unframed, autographed photo of Bruce Bochy, highlighting the longtime connection between two Padres legends. Before embarking on his Hall of Fame managerial career, Bochy played 12 seasons in Major League Baseball—including time with the Padres. As manager, he led San Diego to an NL pennant in 1998 and went on to win four World Series titles. In 2022, Bochy was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame—joining Gwynn in Cooperstown as two of the most influential figures in Padres history. This photo captures a leader who helped shape the franchise both on the field and from the dugout.

Disclaimer: Condition may vary slightly from photos, with unique marks that highlight the award’s authenticity as a career artifact. This item features a silver OVD, verifying its authenticity through the Tony Gwynn Estate. A TRuEST™ authenticator was not on-site to witness its awarding, which is why this item does not carry our gold-level witness-based authentication OVD.
