Here are the Phillies player playoff walk-up Songs.
I am not sure about you but I have always thought about “If I were a baseball player or a WWE wrestler, what would my theme song be?”
Would I go rock, techno, 80’s, hip-hop, or something super bizarre? This song would have to be impactful and make it known to the crowd that THE MAN is coming out.
If you followed the Phillies last year, you know the entire team played Calum Scott’s “Dancing On My Own” throughout the playoffs as their hype song. The song took over the city for the month of October. It was a blast!
Entrance music is key for baseball players because it sort of hypes them up for the 15 seconds that the song plays. The player walks from the on-deck circle to the batter’s box all while his name is being announced on the PA system. That feeling has to be so cool that I am getting goosebumps just imagining it happening to me. Could I even pick one song? I know you go into the game with the song or songs already pre-selected so I could not choose one that fit that specific moment.
There have been some classic Phillies player walkup songs in the past as well as other Major League Players. We all know that when you hear Metallica’s “Enter Sandman” former Hall of Fame Yankee closer Mariano Rivera is coming into the game.
Now I am a huge Phillies fan but I still get chills seeing Mo run out of the bullpen. Remember when Chase Utley came out to Kashmir by Led Zeppelin? (This was the only video I could find of Chase’s walk-up song.)
Some other classic Phillie Walk-Up Song were:
- Pat Burrell using Don Henley’s “Dirty Laundry”
- Shane Victorino used Buffalo Soldier by Bob Marley
- Cole Hamels went with Thunderstruck by AC/DC
- Carlos Ruiz walked up to Phil Collins’s “In The Air Tonight”
- Roy Halladay would use “Good Times Bad Times” by Led Zeppelin
Let’s take a look at the potential playoff walk-up songs for the Phillies.
