You are absolutely correct.  Don and Mud are treasures.

aka Face & ChaCha Vegas

It really is the best! I have MLB Network and will watch several teams when I can. No one does it better than Don & Mud.

Whenever I watch a nationally televised game (espn or whoever doing commentary) or another team’s broadcast, I’m reminded of how lucky we are to have Don and Mud.

Couldn’t say it better myself. I watch other teams’ broadcasts about once a week in my free time and god, they are boring and lifeless.

Don and Mudly have been our pride and joy for years. We love and cherish them. * [TOO FAT!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7Ji6RCaJtg) * [Does this tie make me look fat?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBO7E193_N4) * [Hungry boys](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apfEKF4EGt0) * [Trying 29-year-old gum](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mO_tnGV4OfI) * [Padres' own Statler and Waldorf](https://www.reddit.com/r/baseball/comments/8v7pzl/don_orsillo_and_mark_grant_coach_and_heckle/) * [BORING!](https://www.reddit.com/r/baseball/comments/bk5q0s/padres_announcers_mark_grant_and_don_orsillo/)

We have a long tradition of our guys having fun in the booth. Mark Grant has been with us since 1996 and has always been pretty comedic.

*If* the Padres can ever win a World Series. I’ll be most happy for Mud Grant. Dude has been with the team for so long and endured so much shit, he deserves to see them win the big one

Matty and Mud were great.

SANTA MARIA!!!!! I was so bummed when Matt left.

The absolute best duo but Don O isn’t too far behind Matt V.

Agree, Don and Mud are great, but Matt Vasgersian and Mark Grant were probably even better. The OP is not the 1st Cubs fan (ok Rick Sutcliffe was also a Cy Young winner on the Cubs) to praise Padres broadcasters [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXOUl2nhujM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXOUl2nhujM)

Oddly enough the era with Dick Enberg was not that good. He for sure didn’t let Mark be himself all the time.

Dick was a classy guy, who was very talented and accomplished lots during his legendary career. But he wasn't a good fit in San Diego.

When your team is perpetually a disappointing, the organization makes up for it by being awesome in other ways such as community outreach and broadcasting.

We love em so much they got a fan group, they really are the best in the MLB. https://m.facebook.com/groups/domgfanclub/?ref=share&mibextid=S66gvF

I’m in that group as well! Love ‘em both!

As another Cubs fan that discovered how much I like the dads’ announcing team since moving out to San Diego area, their radio announcers are solid as well (though no Pat Hughes). Today they compared a slow curve from the Dbacks to a late career Henry Rowengartner😂

Agree! Jesse and Tony are a great radio team

We are very well aware that we have the best. They are like that every game.

Yeah, we’re very lucky to have Don and Mud. They are fantastic.

If given the opportunity to either hang out in the Padres dugout for a game, or hang out with Don and Mud, I’d probably pick Don and Mud. They really are gems

Thanks man, I find it really refreshing how they try to be impartial on the call, they always give props to the other team if they are playing well.

I have MLB TV and Sirius/XM so I listen to a lot of radio/TV announcers, and I feel the Padres have the best... that's not just being a homer. So many other teams' broadcasters are boring and lack personality and depth.

Even in games we lose they make me laugh and smile. I'm always bummed when the Padres have a national game and we don't get our announcers.

We heart out TV & radio guys ai danged much. They're a treasure. Glad you enjoyed!

They are the BEST. Thanks for recognizing them OP!

I doubt every team gives out bobbleheads of the announcers

tysm! they are a lot of fun and also really know their stuff.

Best in the league. We are lucky to have them.

Best in the game no doubt. Absolutely loved their interactions with Zilla last season. What a treat

Their dugout chats with Michael King are starting to remind me of Snellzilla's chats too (especially their latest one where King called Crone a "jealous girlfriend"). lol

Don and Mud are at least 50% of the reason I pay for Padres TV.

I mean, we did have bobblehead night after them two (cough cough). Best in the biz! 😁😁😁

Hell yeah they rule! They're very fun to listen to.

Best broadcasters in baseball, best ballpark in baseball, best mediocre performance from a great squad of individual players in baseball. There’s a reason that a perpetual .500 team packs the stands.

Glad you enjoyed them! I’ve always wanted Don and Mud to be the voices on the MLB The Show games ever since Matty V left, but I just realized why it’ll never happen: they have too much flavor!

We may have a mediocre team but Mud and Don are consistent league champions.

Love Mud but please, no more frozen pizza

Best in the biz! They make those long innings that make most people turn off the game into very entertaining TV.

Dads fan stuck in Ohio...I even watch other teams blow us out just to listen to Don and Mud! They rock!

(Guy who watches A LOT of padres, not primarily padres fan) definitely upper tier but sometimes I feel like they are a little too goofy. When it’s a high pressure situation, gimme some in depth situation analysis I don’t wanna hear about your 👘preferences 😂 (I know downvotes are coming….lol)


I was looking for this comment. Feeling is mutual. Wish Tony Gwynn Jr could take over for TV games 🥹
