It starts with a menacing melody, one that swirls all around the Citi Field stands. A shadowy figure emerges from metal gates just as the drumline kicks into gear.Then, the trumpets come in. They blare through the stadium speakers, their flowery rhythm capturing the hearts and minds of the thousands who made the trek to Flushing to watch their beloved Mets play.

The horns. The groove. The way it evokes so much about Diaz's personality. It's truly a sight to behold:Sound 'em. SNY (@SNYtv) And it'
Louis Williams Jersey s one of the biggest spectacles of the 2022 MLB season. Diaz has been electric all year long he's averaging an absurd 18.1 strikeouts per nine innings and looks a lock for the Trevor Hoffman NL Reliever of the Year award.Diaz's routine clearly is paying off in a big way. But how did he get to using the funky track. And who really has the best walkout songs in MLB history? Sporting News has you covered.MORE: Diaz's entrance song is calledNarco by Blasterjaxx and Timmy Trumpet.The song has been out since 2017 and is accompanied by a pretty sick video portraying a knight going on a long and sordid journey by horseback. Because of course it does. The origin of Diaz's decision to use the track with a thumping trumpet is unknown at the moment. However, one thing is clear; "Narco" made a big impre sion on Diaz, who opted to select the song as his go-to walkout track while in Seattle.Fueled by his pitch and track selection, Diaz found succe s. In 2018, he racked up 57 saves with a 1.61 ERA, earning Cy Young and MVP votes in the proce s.When Diaz was dealt to the Mets in 2019, he made a change. He found a new song "No Hay Limite" by Mike Woodz.Diaz proceeded to have one of the worst seasons of his career, blowing saves left and right en route to a hideous 5.59 ERA. Yuck.In 2020, Diaz made the switch back to "Narco." It's been smooth sailing ever since.Breaking news: Edwin Daz says he plans to bring back his entrance music, "Narco" by Blasterjaxx Timmy Trumpet.He says it energizes and motivates him before outings. Anthony DiComo (@AnthonyDiComo) In 2020, I wanted to do everything that gave me succe s back in my Seattle days, Daz said last season, . So I decided to go back to that. Im going to stay with it because I feel comfortable with that music, and it kind of motivates me and energizes me to go out there and pitch.MORE:Diaz isn't the only one it motivates. Recently, even
Paul George Jersey Mets manager Buck Showalter admitted to being a fan of the experience that was Diaz's walkout. He delayed a ninth-inning trip to the bathroom to watch Diaz come out. That's an impre sive feat.Buck Showalter said he refrained from using the bathroom in the 9th inning to watch Edwin Daz's entrance yesterday(and he still had time for his bathroom trip ) SNY (@SNYtv) Mets fans are even getting in on the action. One fan is even planning on using the track on his wedding day. Look at Diaz, so inspirational.Wow, wasnt expecting such a response Thanks to all of and beyond who had fun with this, especially and for sharing, plus himself for liking! The wedding isnt until winter, so stay tuned for videoIn the meantime, John Nolan (@John_G_Nolan) As you might also expect, the artists themselves are grateful for the exposure. The Mets reportedly are poised to bring Timmy Trumpet to Citi Field later in August, opening up the po sibility that Diaz's signature entrance song
Tobias Harris Jersey could be performed live.It seems Sugar Diaz will be able to walk from the bullpen to the mound with LIVE . The will have Timmy Trumpet at . I am being told it would probably happen on August 28th. Raul Ramos (@RamosRauli) MLB history is littered with great relievers capable of making batters whiff with ease. But only a precious few have had entrance songs that can match Diaz's. Here's The Sporting News' take on the best entrance songs in MLB history:10. James Karinchak, "Wild Thing"Karinchak is one of the most entertaining figures in baseball. He's loud, fiery and throws absolute filth. He also embraces the team and city he plays for, . He gets points for the nod to Major League, as well as his burgeoning reputation as MLB's latest version of Rick Vaughn.9. Felix Bautista, Omar's WhistleOmar's coming..."The Wire" is one of the finest shows in television history. And although there are valid criticisms of the show's portrayal of Baltimore, it's hard to deny its impact on the American psyche.Few characters have evoked as much fear as Omar Little, a beautifully nuanced character played by the late Michael K. Williams. When Omar was coming, it was time to head into the house.Bautista has paid homage to Williams and his character this season, using a recording of Omar whistling as he was walking down the road. It intimidates batters while doubly paying tribute to a phenomenal actor we lost far too soon.8.Koji Uehara, "Sandstorm"The theme Sandstorm of Koji Uehara @ (@kyonritapo) "Sandstorm" is one of those songs that everyone knows
Jerome Robinson Jersey , but no one knows they know. It's an absolute fixture of sporting events acro s the world. And Uehara kept the song's lineage going, using it throughout his Red Sox career. Oh, and he won a title with it.That'll get you on the list.7. Trevor Hoffman, "Hells Bells"Hoffman was a force on the mound, ama sing 601 saves, an MLB record (until a certain someone smashed through it) en route to a Hall-of-Fame career. And nothing embodied his ability to strike fear into the hearts of hitters more than his use of the AC/DC track "Hells Bells" when leaving the bullpen. Wailing guitars and fearsome drumbeats have never sounded as intimidating as they did when Hoffman was making the trek to the mound in a one-run game.6. Kenley Jansen, "California Love"There's nothing more West Coast than 2Pac, Dr. Dre and Roger Troutman. And Kenley Jansen, one of the best closers of his generation, paid homage to the synths and groove of 1990s West Coast hip hop by using the cla sic tune as his walkout song throughout his Dodgers career.Jansen, now in Atlanta, enters games backed by the dulcet tones of Jermaine Dupri's "Welcome to Atlanta." But no matter how far he
Montrezl Harrell Jersey strays, Jansen's heart will always belong to the Chavez Ravine.5. Brian Wilson, "Jump Around"Picture this: it's the early-2010s and you're an MLB batter. You've just had to deal with eight innings of Tim Lincecum, Matt Cain or Madison Bumgarner. Now it's the top of the ninth and you see a bearded dragon of sorts headed to the pitcher's mound. What song is dancing in the background? None other than House of Pain's banger, "Jump Around."Wilson was a crucial part of the Giants' 2010 championship squad. But it wa
