It is most likely a cross though I could not guess what with. The gene for pyriform is recessive as are a couple of other genes involved in pear shaped fruit. Long and short of it is that you may have to grow out several dozen plants to find one that repeats the pear shape from the round fruited plant. Of course, it could always be a stray seed.
