Jake Peavy, a former pitcher for the San Diego Padres and two-time World Series champion, performed the national anthem before Game 4 of the NLDS between the Padres and Brewers on Wednesday night alongside Tim Flannery. The event took place at Petco Park where Peavy, who now plays guitar in his band "Jake Peavy & The Outsiders," participated by singing along as Flannery strummed a guitar. This performance highlighted Peavy’s ongoing musical career since retiring from baseball and came shortly after the Padres won Tuesday night's game to avoid elimination.
