Manny Machado and Fernando Tatis Jr. aren't the only new faces at Petco Park this year.
The Padres introduced fans to another team regular with their first-ever "Anchorman" race against the Giants on Friday featuring Ron Burgundy himself. The newest addition to in-game entertainment pitted members of the original Channel 4 news team against each other. Burgundy defeated sports anchor Champ Kind, field reporter Brian Fantana and weatherman Brick Tamland in the race's debut. It was kinda a big deal.
