Josie’s On A Vacation Far Away

byrnes.jpgEric Byrnes is my favorite player in all of sports for even more reasons as of today. I learned from Tirico Suave that the mustache man comes to plate with “Your Love” by the Outfield blasting over the PA. This has to be the best entrance music of any Major Leaguer. I still remember going to games and seeing Jason Kendall come out to the Road Dogg Jesse James DX entrance dialogue. I also remember hearing that Jason Giambi came out to WCW Wolfpack music, which is classic. There have obviously been some good ones, but here are some prospective combinations:

Daisuke Matsuzaka - Tokyo Drift - The Fast and The Furious: Tokyo Drift

Nick Johnson - The Sound a Walrus Makes – Walruses 

Alfonso Soriano – Jump – Van Halen 

Any Steroid User – Stronger – Christina Aguilera 

David Eckstein - I Wish – Skee-Lo

Jeff Kent – Dukes of Hazzard Horn – The General Lee’s  Actual Car Horn

Ryan Braun, Kevin Youkilis, any Jewish player – Hava Nagila

Derek Jeter – Tainted Love – Soft Cell

Alex Rodriquez – Freedom 90 - George Michael

Kris Benson – I’m a Bitch – Meredith Brooks

Eric Gagne - You Dropped a Bomb on Me – The Gap Band

    “Your Love” is one of the few songs I will voluntarily get up and perform actions somewhat resembling “dancing” without being blackout drunk…still need to be drunk…but not blindingly so. one of the more overlooked and underrated 80s songs in my esteemed opinion.

Got something to say?
