"Mr. Padre" documentary about Tony Gwynn will premiere Tuesday on MLB Network

Tomorrow night, MLB Network will premiere a new documentary about Tony Gwynn. In this new installment for the network's acclaimed MLB Network Presents series, the film entitled Mr. Padre profiles the life of one of the most beloved public figures in San Diego and the baseball community as a whole.

I had access to a media screener of the film and was able to watch it over the weekend. I'm happy to report that it's a fantastic documentary that honors the life of Gwynn beautifully. It is narrated by Keith David and features several interviews from various people who were close to Gwynn like his family members, his agent, and former teammates, among others.
