David Wright's At-Bat Music: What, No "This Is Why I'm Hot"?

@stopmikelupica: Sounds good in theory, but that wouldn't always work out so well. Trot Nixon would use Triple H's theme song as his at-bat music, and once he gets his fourth plate appearance, "TIME TO PLAY THE GAAAAAAME" gets kind of stale. Sorry, Lemmy.

And This is why I'm hot is also a great suggestion. I'm especially partial to the line:

I'm hot 'cause I'm fly/You ain't 'cause you not.

Hilarious in its simplicity.

SML: I love that suggestion! "When there's trouble, you call DW; Let's get dangerous!" Fucking awesome. He should totally use that song when there's 2 outs, the Mets are down, and there're men on base.

The Darkwing Duck theme song. "When you're in trouble call DW". Athletes need to use theme songs more... the only one I can think of is Jason Giambi, who use to utilize the theme song of a WWE wrestler, forget which one...

@Mark Cuban Missile Crisis: mea culpa; living on internet time means that even two seconds seem like half a minute to me.

30-second clips? Have you ever been to a game?

I've always wanted to hear a player get introduced to Yo Vanilla from Vanilla Ice's To The Extreme Album. It's the 4 second track that goes, "Yo Vanilla, kick it one time, boooooooooooooooooooooooooyyyyyyyyyyyyy."

That player will immediately become my favorite player and sell several thousands of dollars in merchandise to me and my friends

@fishnotfried: "For Those About to Suck Cock" is Neifi Perez's intro.

A friend of mine made reference to this, and I'm pretty sure it is the ultimate sports scare tactic: Pansy Division's "He Whipped My Ass in Tennis, Then I Fucked His Ass in Bed". Can you imagine the look on the opposing pitcher's face if he came out to that??

Come on, David Wright's such a fucking golden boy he needs some song to complement his milkshake-sharing poodle-skirt-lifting leather-jacket-slung-over-my-shoulder Americanity.

In short, he's a "Juke. Box. Hero."

I really enjoyed the mets games last year when an opposing pitcher or relief pitcher had a short, terrible outing and they would play 'bad day' by Daniel Poweter(imagine my shock when I actually looked up the song and discovered it wasn't done by train). They should make the whole thing more fun and just get someone that knows the players really well to pick songs for them when they come up to bat. David Wells can have anything in the geroge thorogood collection. I kinda like 'flight of the bumblebee' for jose reyes, maybe someone can make a reggaeton mix of that.

My buddy who played baseball for FSU used "Lay Low" by Snoop. That was an excellent song. The first little bit of strings followed by the bump-- awesome.

I'm going with "Super Mario Bros." on this one.

If I was a closer, my entrance music would be the title theme from "Navajo Joe" by Ennio Morricone. It's perfect. It'd scare the shit out of opposing batters. Actually, pretty much all of the Spaghetti Western scores that Morricone wrote would work just fine.

Although, there's something to be said for "It's Raining Men" - especially if one were to happily skip out of the bullpen, glove carried in limp-wristed hand.
