Yesterday I came up with the idea to rank the best walk-up songs in Nationals history. To refresh my memory, I Asked people on Nats Central Twitter Community What was their favorite walk-up song? They came back with some great answers, but some of them I had forgotten. After much consideration, here is my list of the best Nats Walkup songs.
- Michael Morse: Take on me with a-ha
This walk-up song was perfect from Michael Morse. Everything you could hope for in the walk-up song. The fans were fan friendly I’m deeply involved in singing together. The song is classic from the 80s and will never get old even if it is played constantly. It also goes very well with the Morse atmosphere. Even years after Morse left the team, the song was still played during seven inning stretches. Putting it on a baby shark might be a hot take, but I value the lifespan of the take on me.
2. Gerald Para: Baby shark
We all know the story of baby sharks by now. Gerald Para switched his walk-up song to his catchy kids Children’s Requests. He got heated and the song got caught up in a big way. It is the most iconic walk-up song in Nat’s history. The Nationals Walk-Up song didn’t engage the audience more than the Baby Shark. get over 40,000 sports fans to sing For young children, one of the results is. For me, this song has become old since 2019. That’s why it wasn’t number one. It captured the moment very beautifully, but it was exhausting since 2019. It’s the most iconic one, but I enjoyed it more.
3. Wilson Ramos: Wilson by Fish
Wilson Ramos is one of my favourite Nats, especially after an interview with him last week. His walk-up song was another song that involved the crowd. crowd I chanted his name For the song’s song. Even when Wilson beats the Bats, he was always looking forward to seeing Wilson enjoying the bats. The chance to scream Wilson on that sweet guitar beat was a lot of fun. Other players do the same, based on their names, especially walk-up songs based on Jacob Young. But Ramos did it best and put him on the list. Buffalo was such a fan-friendly player, and his walk-up songs were part of it.
4. Jason Worth: The London Werewolf by Warren Zebon
Jason Worth had some good walk-up songs. His Game of Thrones strike was my favorite. But nothing beats the London werewolves. It suited him perfectly. His beard made him look like a werewolf, and something about it makes sense. That will be a great strike song. We couldn’t attract the crowd to the same level as the top three, but there was definitely Some groans When Worth came to the plate.
5. Tyler Clipperd: Are fugees ready?
Tyler Clipperd is the first pitcher on this list and for good reason. Ready or not is a great song and the perfect strike for rescuers. It’s not hard rock, but it still provides a threatening factor with direct lyrics and creepy beats. In many cases, the batsmen weren’t ready for Clippard. Because he lit his bullpen arms for most of his eight seasons with NATS.
6. Bryce Harper: Flowers by Moby
Lift the sari and lower the sari! This was a very fun walk-up song by Blythe, who had a great candidate on this list. I loved Harper when he had the vest, but Frank Sinatra hadn’t come yet, this was my favorite. It engaged the crowd, it was unique and it was beautiful in its simplicity. Whatever you think of Blythe lately, you have to love his walk-up choices.
7. Max Scherzer: Dr. Dre still
This was a walk-up for Max Scherzer, later in his Nationals career, when he entered his mid-30s. It was a rebellious statement that even if he was older he was still the man. The song matched perfectly with his almost hinge strength. He wanted the batsmen to know that he was still the best in the world. Max Scherzer is my favorite player, so it’s fitting to put his Walkup songs on his list.
8. Lane Thomas: Staining my boots by John Paldy
The latest selection on this list is another choice that suits the player very well. A blue-collar song for Lane Thomas’ blue-collar player. This song is also very catchy and memorable. Thomas was the bright light of DC’s dark years. He has always had a place in Nats history and becomes the name people remember that the team is good again.
9. Adam Eaton: Mac’s Return by Mark Morrison
This is a great walk-up song for any player. It was a great choice to not dig with the Adam Eaton duo in this song. Both are great songs and are perfect for strikes. Unlike most other selections, this has more to do with the pure quality of the song than it relates to the player and fan engagement.
10. Daniel Murphy: Ships to Boston by Dropkick Murphys
Another name that plays a little of the player’s name, I’ve been shipped to Boston. It brings a threatening factor with its heavy rock sound, but it’s still fan-friendly. This walk-up song usually follows Murphy’s hits, making it even better. I love players and I love songs so I have to make a list.
