New Padres owner Kwanza Jones puts on a performance for the ages at introductory presser
As a singer and songwriter, Kwanza Jones knows a thing or two about putting on a performance, and she made sure to show off those abilities as she was introduced as a new owner of the San Diego Padres .
Jones, along with her husband, Jose E.
Feliciano, took over ownership of the Padres in a $3.9 billion sale from John Seidler and his family earlier this month.
The pair were introduced to the media in San Diego on Monday, and it's safe to assume that Jones is rather excited about the new, incredibly expensive endeavor in Major League Baseball .
"We gonna win.
We gonna win.
We’re going to win, win it all," Jones shouted while offering up some hand gestures as well.
"We hope it’s sooner rather than later." SAN DIEGO PADRES STAR MANNY MACHADO IS WRONG TO COMPLAIN ABOUT MODERN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL Jones also stood up at one point during the news conference and took a picture of the gathered media with her phone.
Padres fans are hopeful that sooner rather than later part comes to fruition, especially considering that they've been waiting forever to see San Diego win a World Series.
The Padres have played in the World Series twice in franchise history, most recently in 1998, but have never hoisted the Commissioner's Trophy.
