Tony Gwynn was officially inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame yesterday.
"I never really looked at what I did as being anything special. I really loved the game. I think that's why you guys are here today. You love the game," he's quoted as having told the fans onhand for the ceremony. "You have a passion for it. I have a passion for it. I still have a passion for it. I just don't play anymore."
