Your 'At Bat' Song

lumberjim · 04-12-2010, 11:37 PM

I didn't know that Major League Baseball players have specific songs that play when they come up to bat. I've never noticed it......

anyway... jinx heard them talking about it on the radio....apparently Chase Utley bats to Kashmir.....although he seemed a bit vague about it in the radio interview...

Quote:

more:

J-Roll - Ice Cream Paint Job...Dorrough
Shane Victorino - Buffalo Soldier...Bob Marley
Chase Utley - Kashmir...Led Zeppelin
Ryan Howard - Stanky Legg...GS Boyz
Ibanez - Save You...Pearl Jam
Werth - Heavy Metal...Sammy Hagar (he recently changed his to Sex on Fire by Kings of Leon)
Feliz - Faint...Linkin Park (he recently changed it to Calle Ocho by Pitbull)
Carlos Ruiz - Turn My Swag On...Soulja Boy
Paul Bako - Never Too Late...Three Days Grace
Greg Dobbs - Megalomaniac...Incubus
Ben Francisco - Amazing...Kanye West

oh... so what song would you bat to?

I recently attended one of our local high school baseball games and the home team was doing this for the players in the top of their line up. It was funny.

bowmp bowmp. chicka chicka

oh yeah.

Maybe something like this?

Assuming that as a member of MLB I would have major roid rage.

Well I'm curently into warm-up music (swimmers and hockey players).

This is on the playlist:

maybe a little too trancy/dancy for batting

Yeah, and you know what else? Sometimes baseball videogame designers are little pansy-ass bitches who will whine and moan for months on end because this song isn't playing when this player comes up to bat, and that song always has to play when this player comes up to bat because it's their at-bat song!! Doesn't fucking matter how many times you explain the concept of licensing rights to them and how we can't afford even one "special" song, let alone every goddamn player's special song...

Sundae · 04-14-2010, 04:57 PM

Don't understand the concept, as we don't play any songs during games/ matches here. The fans sing them of course, but that was the topic of another thread.

This is my "getting ready to go out" song from about 5000 million years ago. Approximately.

jinx · 04-14-2010, 08:22 PM

One of these 2, I can't decide

lumberjim · 04-14-2010, 08:26 PM

the problem with this thread is that fucking Tony posted the ultimate cool at bat song...and no one will ever top it.

he's such a cock.

monster · 04-14-2010, 08:48 PM

This for me, starting at 43s, but I can't seem to get the handy youtube tip to work for starting it there. maybe it's because of the irritating vevo thing

lumberjim · 04-14-2010, 09:12 PM

right after the string, put &start=43

no caps, no spaces.

ah, you got it

monster · 04-14-2010, 09:15 PM

thanks. Funny, that's what I did with the one I posted the other day and it didn't work, so then I looked up the youtube tips thread and it gave the #= tip which did work!

squirell nutkin · 04-14-2010, 11:23 PM

I want my at bat song to be rem's Don't fall on me.
