my pre at-bat music would be "The Note" section of "You Enjoy Myself," though Tweeprise sounds pretty good on the organ at Fenway - http://www.phish.com/fp/

phil hughes looks like SUCH a metallica fan
the cardinals' lineup is a pretty hilarious mix of unintelligble reggaeton/ringtone rap (yadi, pujols, felipe lopez), country music (colby r, holliday, joe mather etc) & 90s teenager classics (ludwick has beastie boys & freese has pearl jam)

there's really nothing in between
The Braves play a few snarky organ bars for visiting batters. A few heard this week:
Jose Reyes - "King of Pain" (injuries + "rey")Jeff Francoeur - "These Foolish Things" (sentimental, unless theyre referencing his zone judgment)Buster Posey - "Ring Around the Rosie"Pat Burrell - "Cold as Ice" (the famed "no underwear" interview?)Tim Lincecum - "Puff the Magic Dragon"
― kind of shrill and very self-righteous (Dr Morbius), Friday, 6 August 2010 22:02 (thirteen years ago) link
i think the Burrell jab is more directly a comment on his awful July.

Sometimes the music can get players in trouble. In 2002 when Manny Ramirez was with the Red Sox, he made a last-minute request, via a clubhouse employee, to have his song changed just before a game. The new cut was "Good Times (I Get High)" by Styles, which has drug-themed lyrics and profanity. Boston immediately changed its policy to prohibit spontaneous requests.

@cgrand14I added @MobbDeep "survival of the fittest" to the at-bat list yesterday. Thanks for all the suggestions, I'm still considering a few more.
"New York got a ***** depressed."

I suggested the Pete Rock mix of PE's "Shut 'Em Down" and Nas' "It Ain't Hard to Tell." (He said he was looking for older hip-hop. Someone suggested "Game Over" by Lil' Flip. Another person suggested DJ Khaled.)
I can't believe I tweeted to an athlete.

1B Hee Seop Choi - Unknown Korean Rap SongInfo from the Florida Marlins: On opening day, Hee Seop showed up with a Korean rap song, and requested that it be played every time he went up to bat. The song has taken the Marlin fans by storm. The music guys have no clue who sings the song or what it says, but the crowd loves the tune ... and so does Hee Seop.― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Friday, August 6, 2004 11:51 AM (8 years ago)
