Guest Bobby Cox is God Report post Posted August 31, 2003 What is the best closer song you have heard? Mine would have to be John Smoltz's Star Wars Imperial March mixed with AC/DC's Thunderstruck. It's probably one of the most badass things I've ever heard in my life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the max 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2003 The only one that I know of is Trevor Hoffman's 'Hell's Bells', but he's been out for the season and the Padres suck, so we probably wouldn't hear it too much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Bobby Cox is God Report post Posted August 31, 2003 Hoffman is one of the more underrated closers in the game. He and Percival are probably the two best, but thye get no respect. I would have said Rivera but he's lost something, and he's not what he used to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Always fun watching that little redneck running out there to Metallica. Just seems a bit off somehow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Interestingly enough, despite the "Wild Thing" phoenommon that started up after the movie came out, that wasn't the first reliever "theme song" Sparky Lyle of the Yankees in the 1970's used to ride in from the bullpen to the strains of "Pomp and Circumstance" Just wanted to throw that tidbit out there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
