Don and Mud Mini Yacht Night 2026 - Padres Announcers Bobblehead

Don and Mud Mini Yacht Night is Friday, July 31, 2026. The Padres host the San Francisco Giants.

This is a Theme Game, make sure you know what that means. The package includes a ticket to the Giants vs. Padres game, plus a Don Orsillo and Mud Grant mini yacht bobblehead.

As Don says, “you gotta get the theme game ticket.”

About Don and Mud

Don Orsillo and Mark “Mud” Grant are the Padres’ TV broadcast team. Don handles play-by-play, Mud does color commentary. They’ve been calling games together since 2016.

The mini yacht bit comes from their broadcasts—one of those running jokes that builds over time until it becomes part of the show. The bobblehead captures that moment.

Their chemistry works because they’re loose without being unprofessional. They’ll riff on whatever’s happening in the game, go off on tangents about food or San Diego neighborhoods, and occasionally lose it laughing at something absurd. It’s the kind of broadcast where you might tune in for the game and stay for the conversation.

Padres fans who’ve been watching for years know the callbacks, the inside jokes, the way Don will set something up and Mud will knock it down. This bobblehead is for those people.
