Why don’t we pin our Semi-Inevitable Second-To-Last-Weekend-Of-The-Season Baseball Thread to this analysis of the Mets’ at-bat music? Just look at Fernando Tatis talk about why he comes (well, came) to the plate to the strains of the theme to Superman: “I don’t care. I don’t even know what it sounds like. Somebody was joking with me. I have no idea. They just put it on and play it.” [MLB.com]

Brian Schneider has “In the Air Tonight” by Phil Collins…the Mets deserve everything they get.
I enjoy Mike Pelfrey using “What I Like About You” — which was pretty ironic early in the season before he stopped being terrible, since prior to that nobody actually even remotely liked the guy. (I now think he’s wonderful)
I also think Jose Reyes used to use some song that actually had his name in the chorus, which is like something out of professional wrestling. In a good way.
Tatis sure didn’t look like Superman when he separated his shoulder on Tuesday night.
I think the best entrance music I heard this year was Dimitri Young coming out the The D.O.C. “It’s Funky Enough”. Great cut that you don’t hear enough, surprising to hear it at a stadium where you hear the same songs all the time.
