Fla. New approach for Tony Gwynn YUMA. Ariz. (AP) —— Usually eager to squeeze every minute out of spring training. San Diego Padres outfielder Tony Gwynn has a new approach. He hopes that will prevent a repeat of the last few seasons, when he started strong only to tail off in the second half. “I think this year it might be a little bit different.‘ said Gwynn, who opened exhibition play last year by going 7 for 7. “The first few games, I always like to go out and play six or seven innings. get three or four tit-bats and try to get locked in. "I'm shooting all of my hits out in spring training So this year I’m going to gradually try to work my way in instead of jumping right out of the gates. ‘ Gwynn has won four NL batting crowns. but none since 1989 when he hit .336. Since then. he hit .309 in 1990 and .317 in each ofthe last two seasons. His last three seasons also have been cut short by injurres. / He:pitL (that your Ltiit'Lrs iiL'Lnres 5L7 t,/s you protmttu r/eL/Ltoser to t/rirtu-somLt/uno [iron ii/Zy- or 5i.\‘ty-sonlet/ting.
