If there was a parody song "Never gonna strike us out", it could be played when the visiting team's closer came out the bullpen.

Just wrote the parody. Now I gotta patent it, then I'll surely be able to sell it to some closer.


:music:
This game is almost over
Your team might think that they can win
They call on you to close the game right now
Unfortunately you won?t get out alive
We won?t let you ruin our evening
Hope you fall and break your hand

CHORUS
Never gonna strike us out
Never gonna close the game
Never gonna add a win to your record
Never gonna get that deal
Never gonna be the man
Never gonna win it all with your arm

We?re in the same league this is true
You know we?re better but you can?t tell the truth
Inside you cry when your team loses games
That means tonight your name is Niagara Falls
And if you think you?re gonna prove us wrong
Then you?re thinking so stupidly

CHORUS

CHORUS
CHORUS
(Ooh strike us out)
(Ooh strike us out)
(Ooh) never gonna strike, never gonna strike
(strike us out)
(Ooh) never gonna strike, never gonna strike
(strike us out)

We?re in the same league this is true
You know we?re better but you can?t tell the truth
Inside you cry when your team loses games
That means tonight your name is Niagara Falls

We won?t let you ruin our evening
Hope you fall and break your hand

CHORUS
:music:

Awesome. :beer:

Agree w/ Wild Thing. Who all has used it? I just remember Mitch Williams of the 89 Cubs.

Mitchie Poo! He single-handedly KILLED the Phillies in the '93 World Series, yet is a beloved Philly broadcaster today. Who sez Philly fans don't have love in their hearts? :laugh:

While I was still in the pen warming up, I'd have them go with Englebert Humperdinck.

Wow you are all thinking too hard on this one. Mine would be the greatest entrance song of all time to psyche out the opponents. Nothing is more menacing.

Mayhem - Chainsaw Gutsfvck ... because it is such a clusterfvck that it would annoy the hell out of the other team and maybe hurt their ears.

i dont know what id use but i liked hearing 'hells bells'. now we get 'blow me away' by breaking benjamin. im not a fan of the group but i hope to hear that song a lot this year.

I'd use AC/DC - Hell's Bells. Awesome, intense song. The NJ Devils use it as their intro song, and it obviously works well for them.

(the current version doesn't have so much emphasis on the new arena, and it's a lot more awesome in person with all the lights and whatnot)

Ehh, Trevor Hoffman uses it. It's so 1997

Ummm... how 'bout "I'm On A Boat!"

I don't know if it is the best, but Cochise by Audioslave could work quite well. The intro, specifically.

For those that don't know, in baseball, when the closer comes out from the bullpen, he can choose an "entrance" song to be played while he makes his trot to the mound.

What would you pick for your song? Why?

I'd go with "Like a Virgin" by Madonna because I'd make the opposing batters strike out early.

my gaydar just exploded.

Oh come on. Imagine how much the other team would make fun of you as that song played.

Then, assuming you're really good, imagine how pathetic they'll feel after they strike out. No one would want to hit against you because they'd never hear the end of it.

"You struck out to a guy whose entrance song is "Like a Virgin"! Lame!"

Of course, this obviously would only work if you were a great closer. Otherwise, yeah, it'd definitely suck.

I like your thinking.
