This paddle player will perform in concert at Gallagher Square
San Diego (Fox 5 / Kusi) – We all know that the paadres can swing on the field, but a padded will present his talents out of the field – on the music scene.
Padres’ interior field player Jose Iglesias is also a Latin-pop artist who will perform with the Mexican group La Adiciva on Thursday, September 25 in Gallagher Square in Petco Park, the team announced on Tuesday in a press release.
The nickname Iglesias “Candelita”, which in Spanish results in “Little Flame”, is inspired by the nickname of his father Candelario. The nickname he picked up in Cuba is also his stage name.
