Jered Weaver knows his audience.

After reportedly agreeing to a one-year, $3-million deal with the San Diego Padres on Saturday, Weaver played up to his new fan base with one of the city's most iconic fictional stars, Ron Burgundy:

Burgundy, of course, is the fabricated San Diego anchor played by actor Will Ferrell who rose to prominence after the release of the 2004 comedy, "Anchorman."

Stay classy, Jered Weaver.
