Well, let me tell ya somethin’ about this Alec Bohm fella and his walk-up songs. You know, the tunes they play when them baseball players swagger up to the plate? Yeah, that’s what we’re talkin’ about.
Alec Bohm and His Walk-Up Music
Now, I ain’t no expert on this fancy music stuff. My radio mostly plays the farm reports and sometimes that gospel hour on Sundays. But from what I hear, this Alec, he’s got some interesting choices for his walk-up songs. People get all worked up about it, talkin’ on the internet and such. They even got these things called “playlists” for it. Sounds mighty complicated to me.
One time, they say he used a song by some fella named Kanye West. “Famous”, I think it was called. Now, I ain’t heard of this Kanye fella, but the young’uns seem to like him. This song, it’s got a bit of an old-timey reggae tune in it, somethin’ by a lady named Sister Nancy. “Bam Bam”, they call it. Imagine that, mixing old with new. Kids these days, always up to somethin’.

Then there’s this “Nuthin’ but a ‘G’ Thang” song. Sounds like somethin’ my grandson would listen to, all that hippity-hop stuff. Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg, they call themselves. Heard it was in some movie too, about that Compton place. Makes you wonder what goes on in these city folks’ heads, pickin’ such loud music for a baseball game.
But it ain’t just about the loud stuff. Seems like Alec, he likes all sorts of things. They say he used a song called “A-O-K” by some fella named Tai Verdes. And another one, “Look Ahead,” when he first started playin’ in the big leagues. He even had a song called “Lay Low.” See? All different kinds. Makes you think he’s just tryin’ to find the right tune to get him in the mood to hit that ball real hard.
Now, I don’t know why they gotta change these songs all the time. Back in my day, we had one song, and that was it. But these young fellas, they like to switch things up. Keep folks guessin’, I reckon. Just like this Bryson Stott fella, plays for the same team as Alec. He’s got his own song, and the whole crowd starts singin’ along. Must be somethin’ special.
Why Walk-Up Songs Matter
You might be thinkin’, “Why all the fuss about a little song?” Well, I’ll tell ya. It’s about gettin’ fired up. It’s about settin’ the mood. It’s about lettin’ folks know who you are. Just like a farmer wearin’ his best overalls to the market, these fellas use their music to show off a bit. It’s their way of sayin’, “Here I come, and I’m ready to play.”
And it ain’t just for the players neither. Them fans, they get into it too. They hear that song, and they know it’s time for Alec to do his thing. They start cheerin’, clappin’, and hollerin’. It gets the whole stadium buzzin’. It’s like a secret code, a signal that somethin’ big is about to happen.
So, next time you’re watchin’ one of them baseball games, pay attention to the walk-up songs. They ain’t just noise. They’re part of the whole shebang. They’re part of what makes baseball, well, baseball. And as for Alec Bohm, he seems to pick some catchy tunes, even if this old lady don’t always understand them. But hey, as long as he’s hittin’ that ball, I guess he can play whatever he wants.
And that’s all I gotta say about that. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go check on my chickens. Them eggs ain’t gonna gather themselves, you know.
