What would be your at bat theme song?

Scenario #1- You're coming up to bat in the bottom of the 9th, winning run on 2nd. Late September, pennant could be on the line here...

Scenario #2- You're coming out of the pen in the bottom of the 9th, winning run on 2nd. Late September, pennant could be on the line here...


In either situation, what's your theme song? Every player has one.
Billy Wagner and Mariano Rivera have Metallica's "Enter Sandman".
Trevor Hoffman has AC/DC's "Hell's Bell's"
Fuck, even Scott Schoeneweis has 30 Seconds to Mars's "From Yesterday".

This is a question I have asked myself alot and after countless debates within my own little mind, I (for myself) have 2 songs. One for situation #1, one for situation #2. Are they popular chart toppers, no. Not at all. Do I believe they would be more entertaining and refreshing to hear than "Who Let the Dogs Out" or "Welcome to the Jungle" for the 1,000th time. (Love G 'n R though) Yes. Even so, who cares? It's all about getting YOU amped up and ready to go!

So what are your theme songs? You could have one for each, or one for both.

Let's hear 'em!!!!!!


Situation #1:



Situation #2:


p.s- not my videos. SO all that crazyness on the second is some other dudes youtubeingness...
