Aaron Shawn Estes (born Aaron Shawn Dziergas (he later took on his stepfather's last name) on February 18, 1973 in San Bernardino, California) is a pitcher for the San Diego Padres. Estes had his best season as a professional in 1997, when he went 19-5 with a 3.18 ERA for the San Francisco Giants. He is also known for throwing a foot behind Roger Clemens as he tried to hit Clemens in retaliation for Clemens hitting Mike Piazza in the head two years earlier, and for swatting a home run off Clemens later in the game. He also has 4 career home runs and 28 RBIs.
Estes was out for the 2006 season due to elbow surgery. The Padres signed him to a minor league contract on January 14.
