1991 Rawlings Gold Glove Award representing the fifth and final Gold Glove of Tony Gwynn’s remarkable career. Presented each year to the top defensive player at each position in both the American and National Leagues, the Gold Glove is one of the most prestigious honors in baseball. Gwynn, patrolling right field for the San Diego Padres, claimed the award in 1991 after finishing the season with a .990 fielding percentage, eight assists, and two double plays turned—underscoring his consistency, reliability, and arm strength.

Beyond traditional stats, advanced metrics now shed even more light on Gwynn’s defensive dominance. According to BaseballProjection.com, Gwynn led all Major League players in Total Zone Fielding Runs Above Average in 1991 with 28 runs saved—five more than the next closest defender, Cal Ripken Jr. His awareness, glove work, and ability to read the field were unparalleled, making him a force on both sides of the game.

Tony Gwynn earned five Gold Glove Awards between 1986 and 1991, a stretch that proved he wasn’t just one of baseball’s most feared hitters—he was also one of its most complete players.
