Thread: Best At-Bat Music

  1. #1

    Best At-Bat Music

    Used by multiple players does not count, just wondering which batter has the best entrace music in your opinion that is used just by them, at the games that you've attended or watched on TV.

    Mine is:

    Wilmy Caceres - Sueltme
    Trenidad Hubbard - Can't Be Touched
    Hee Seop Choi - Unknown Korean rap music
    Frank's Field of Dreams
    "If I build it, you'll come."

    How about...

    A dignified silence. It was good enough in the old days, it's good enough now.
    Ask me to change my sig! Sig changed 7 times, last change requested by MapleSyrupMan!

    ...Just so you all know, I love being quoted. Even if you're ripping apart my post as awful and stupid, I don't care. Quote me.

    Officially boycotting all threads with steroid talk; let's focus on the good of the game.

    Agreed, another silly addition to a great game, batters and their own theme music.

    Mine would be Jimi Hendrix's Voodoo Child, and I heard Sal Fasano use that a few times this season (he uses a variety of stuff), so I have to go with him!

    Frank Thomas uses some sweet upbeat rap beat.

    Not sure who my favorite hitter is, but I do like Rivera coming in to close out Yanks game to Enter Sandman.

    Walk-up song

    It's the bottom of the 9th, two outs, bases loaded, your team is down by 3, game 7 of the World Series. As you approach the plate, what song do you want playing?

    Hmm... Nothing too hard-rock for me. Maybe "Carry On My Wayward Son" by Kansas? Or "Cheap Seats" by Alabama.

    Or, nothing. I wouldn't want all the fans chanting my name to be drowned out by my music .

    I was thinking "In The Air Tonight" by Phil Collins, or the "Rock and Roll Part 2" by Gary Glitter.

    For home games the chant of "MVP! MVP!" would drown out the song.
    For away games the chant of "Overrated! Overrated!" would be heard.

    You just became my favorite poster for today
    Mythical SF Chronicle scouting report: "That Jeff runs like a deer. Unfortunately, he also hits AND throws like one." I am Venus DeMilo - NO ARM! I can play like a big leaguer, I can field like Luzinski, run like Lombardi. The secret to managing is keeping the ones who hate you away from the undecided ones. I am a triumph of quantity over quality. I'm almost useful, every village needs an idiot.

    I'd want the same song that played when Albert Belle came to bat.

    I'm not sure what I want, but I know what I'd get
    Linda Ronstadt's "You're No Good"
    Peggy Lee's "Is That All There Is?"
    Who does "Hit the Road, Jack"?

    Hells Bells by AC/DC. The intro would create a good atmosphere with the crowd.

    Make them Suffer by Cannibal Corpse springs to mind.

    The one walk-up song that would give me great confidence at bat would be Vampires by Godsmack.
    "Pitchers did me a favor when they knocked me down. It made me more determined. I wouldn't let that pitcher get me out. They say you can't hit if you're on your back, but I didn't hit on my back. I got up." - Frank Robinson

    Whatever the name of the song is that is played in Arlington when a Ranger hits a home run.

    Anything with Scottish bagpipes. Add to the whole Highlander atmosphere by screaming at the top of your lungs while pointing your bat at the pitcher. If it doesn't scare the bejeebers out of him, it'll sure's heck make him laugh hysterically, thus throwing off his confidence.

    -Eppa Rixey, upon learning of his induction to the Baseball Hall of Fame.

    Motafy (MO-ta-fy) vt. -fied, -fying 1. For a pitcher to melt down in a big game situation; to become like Guillermo Mota. 2. The transformation of a good pitcher into one of Guillermo Mota's caliber.

    It also helps if you yell "FREEEEEEDOM!"
