Jorge Alfaro gives Padres fans what they want with ‘Let’s [expletive] go San Diego!’ after another walkoff

Alfaro’s catchphrase is back.

Jorge Alfaro can’t stop hitting walkoff game-winners.

And he then can’t stop delivering his trademark phrase that gets San Diego Padres fans at Petco Park cheering.

His “Let’s [expletive] go San Diego!” has become a thing this year, during the post-game, post-walkoff interview, which may not make the broadcasters happy. But the reaction from Padres fans is hilarious, to the point where they’re doing the Simpsons‘ meme: SAY THE LINE!

So in the Padres’ 6-5 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday night, he did it again, and of course fans loved it. Here you go (And WARNING: NSFW LANGUAGE AHEAD!):

Epic.

Jorge Alfaro drops another ‘Let’s [expletive] go San Diego!’ on air during post-walkoff interview

“Let’s [expletive] go San Diego!”

Jorge Alfaro said the line.

The outfielder hit a walk-off hit to help the San Diego Padres on Thursday night, and afterwards, he was interviewed. But everyone — from his teammates to fans — was waiting to see if he’d say what he said last month when he hit a different walk-off for a win.

You see, back in June, he said on the air “Let’s [expletive] go San Diego!” and it became a bit of a catchphrase (see below). So guess what they wanted him to say?

Yep. And he said it. And everyone went nuts. Rightfully so.

Here’s the first time (WARNING: NSFW LANGUAGE AHEAD!):

And the next:

Amazing.

Jorge Alfaro crushed a walk-off HR on Mother’s Day shortly after his mom told him he would

Moms really do know everything.

Padres catcher Jorge Alfaro and his mom had a Mother’s Day yesterday that they’ll never forget.

Before Sunday’s game Alfaro saw that he wasn’t in the lineup for series finale at home against the Marlins. Like a good son he called his mom to wish her a happy Mother’s Day and she had a message for him:

“If you’re not in the lineup, just be ready, you’re going to hit a home run today,” Alfaro said after the game with a laugh. “I’m like, ‘Mom, that’s hard to do.'”

Later that afternoon with the Padres trailing 2-0 in the ninth inning and having two men on base, Alfaro stepped in as a pinch-hitter and ended the game on the first pitch that he saw:

Amazing.

He said he was thinking about his mom as he circled the bases:

“It’s just unbelievable. She called it earlier, right before the game started. After I hit the ball, I was running the bases, and it was like I was dreaming. It feels like a dream. How did she know!?”

That’s a pretty darn good Mother’s Day present!
