Best of 2023 Theme: MLB Home Run Edition

To celebrate an amazing 2023 in sports, I have decided to make a best of 2023 Theme music edition. This post is about the top 5 Home Run songs in MLB. I would do best walkout entrances, but there are so many to consider. That will be done closer to the 2024 regular MLB season. With that in mind, here is my top 5 MLB Home Run Songs

5. (A Tie) Chicago Cubs and Seattle Mariners: Both the Cubs and the Mariners used songs from the 1990’s as their home run song. I couldn’t decide which one to eliminate, so both Baby Got Back from the Mariners and Whoomp! There It Is from the Cubs are on this list.

4. Oakland A’s: You will see this song in another edition, but The A’s did the right thing in representing California. Choosing Tupac’s and Dr. Dre’s California Love as an homage to the state. It will be ashame that they will be moving to Las Vegas in a few years. Maybe Viva Las Vegas will be their home run song.

3.NY Yankees: Sadly, as a Mets fan, this is the only time I agree with the Yankees. Using late DMX’s song “X Gon Give It To Ya” as an homage to the rapper living a county above the Bronx. Let’s hope the Mets can do better than a cheezy and annoying song from 2005.

2. Baltimore Orioles: A splendid way to use 7 Nation Army. Unfortunately, it is in this spot because the Baltimore Ravens also uses this song as their touchdown song, which I’ll explain the coincidence in the NFL edition. I do love this song in general, but it’s always used for sporting events.

  1. Pittsburgh Pirates: A surprise for this team to make #1 for best home run song. Song 2 by Blur is the one song I never thought to hear as the Pirates’s home run theme. However, Song 2 was also used by another team, which will be discussed in the NHL edition.
