Both Gwynn (.328), who signed only a year ago out of San Diego State University, and righthander Andy Hawkins (9-7, 2.17 and a league-leading six shutouts), a 1978 first-round draft choice of San Diego, spent most of the season in Hawaii, before being called up in late July by the Padres. The Padres, in the midst of a pennant race, quickly inserted the pair in starting roles, attesting to their major league potential.
