SAN FRANCISCO — When Hunter Strickland replaced Andrew Suarez in the third inning Sunday afternoon, Limp Bizkit’s “Break Stuff” blasted through AT&T Park. DJ Brandon Crawford can be a savage, especially if you’ve done something that can be so easily highlighted by a walk-up or warm-up song.
Once again, Crawford chose the Game 162 entrance music for all of his teammates. Many of the choices were easy to figure out, like “Empire State of Mind” for New York’s Joe Panik, “More Than a Feeling” for Boston’s Chris Shaw, “I Got a Beard” for Casey Kelly, who has a beard, or “Getting Jiggy Wit It” by Will Smith, for Will Smith. As always there were plenty of inside jokes, and plenty of jokes about guys on the DL. Brandon Belt was given “I Need A Doctor” for a second straight season and others got references to their specific season-ending injuries.
Here’s the full list:
