Walk-up Music

The Republic today published a list of the music used by Diamondbacks players. If you were a player, what would your theme-song be? Or, as an alternative, care to suggest some more appropriate songs for the current players? With regard to the latter, here are a few nominations:

  • Chris Snyder, Great Balls of Fire - Jerry Lee Lewis
  • Eric Byrnes, Help! - The Beatles
  • Chad Qualls, Inherited Hell - Nuclear Assault
  • Mark Reynolds, Swing! Brother, Swing! - Billie Holliday
  • Orlando Hudson, Hand in Glove, The Smiths
  • Augie Ojeda, Little Man (I Love You) - Atmosphere
  • Doug Davis, The Great Curve - Talking Heads
  • Conor Jackson, I Walk the Line - Johnny Cash
  • Randy Johnson, Justified & Ancient - The KLF
  • Justin Upton, Too Much Too Young - The Specials
    and finally:
  • For our entire offense, Release the Bats - The Birthday Party

I don't know about a song for any specific player

But if I was a closer, I’d want to hear Iron Maiden’s Hallowed Be Thy Name every time I come in for the ninth inning.

Dear Josh Byrnes: Please DFA Chris Burke. Give D'antona a chance. Trade for someone that actually knows how to hit.

by Zephon on Jul 13, 2008 2:35 AM EDT   0 recs

Yeah

Iron Maiden would be pretty sweet. Maybe The Wicker Man or Aces High.

I could definitely walks out to

AC/DC’s “For Those About to Rock” (so long as it referred to me, not the batters)

soco says its a stripper song

But mine would be Pour Some Sugar on Me. The opening riff, how could you NOT be pumped by it?

Isn't it enough to know I ruined a pony making a gift for you?
