Tommy Pham is finally revealing what his back looked like the night he was stabbed at a strip club in San Diego … and it’s GRUESOME.
The Padres star remembered the one-year anniversary of his stabbing by posting a photo of his slash wound … and you can see, the 33-year-old is clearly lucky to still be alive today.
The picture shows Pham was gashed by a blade from the back of his right hip all the way to the back of his left hip — leaving a deep, bloody wound.

As we previously reported, Pham was stabbed after he got into an altercation with several people in the parking lot at Pacers Showgirls International on Oct. 11, 2020 … and he says he needed 200 stitches to close the wound.
Pham — who ended up suing the club over the incident, claiming its employees and security didn’t do enough to help protect him — ultimately made a full recovery and played well in 2021.

The outfielder logged time in 155 games, hitting 15 home runs and stealing 14 bases … and based on his social media post Monday, it’s obvious he’s proud of what he overcame.
Pham’s 1-year deal with the Padres expires after the 2021 season concludes … but he’s expected to command interest from several teams in free agency this offseason.
