Padre’s jug Jason Adam learns that he did the All-Star team under the Church

San Diego Padre’s relief bitter Jason Adam Participated in worship services over the weekend when he missed a call from the team’s manager, Mike Shildt.

Immediately his wife Kelsey began to worry before Adam returned the conversation.

“I feel that my phone is vibrating, and I am, ‘oh, it’s shildty,’ and I show my wife, and she goes immediately, ‘oh my gosh, no way, we’re traded,'” he tells people.

When he went out to call back on Sunday, July 6, Adam, 33, was told that he had been selected for the National League All-Star team for the first time, along with teammates Fernando Tatis Jr. And Manny Machado.

“It caused a small scene in the church,” Adam says to deliver the update to Kelsey. “But she cried, so excited.”

He then ran back to call his parents.

“I wouldn’t be here without them,” he says. “My dad tried to play it cool, but super excited. My mom, I think, cried. They have been there through the ups and downs, they spent who knows how much money and time that drove me all over the tournaments.”

“They booked flights, I think, before I hung up,” Adam adds.

The father of four says that two days later someone must have talked to their girls about the news while they were in a playroom on a game.

“My 7-year-old … I come out after the match to give them a hug before they go home,” says Adam, “and she goes,” Dad, we did the All-Star game, “and it made me so happy that she said we, because they are such (a) crucial part.”

On Tuesday, July 8, Robert Suárez Also lost for MLB All-Star Game, planned until Tuesday, July 15 in Atlanta, after a Braves player was injured.

“When he gets in the game, we kick his feet up because we assume the game is over and that’s what it’s been almost every single night. So he’s special,” says Adam.
