 San Diego Padres - Retired Numbers [Archive] - Baseball Fever
Randy Jones, #35, was with the Team for eight years and had a W-L record of 92-105.
If they were looking for reasons to justify their retired jersey numbers, though, they could say that Jones had two fantasic seasons for really bad Padre teams and was the first player to receive a major award (1976 N.L. Cy Young) in a Padres uniform.
With Garvey they could justify it by saying that he was a future Hall of Famer (at least he appeared to be at the time of his retirement) and that he played a major role in leading the Padres to their first ever pennant.
