Walk away, just walk away.
Welcome to the Los Angeles Dodgers 2022 regular season. On the last episode of Dodgers baseball, the 2002 World Series champions fell in six games to the eventual champion Atlanta Braves.
There was a 99-day lockout in between, and a couple of former All-Stars traded places, outside of that, we pick up where we left off with the Dodgers once again squaring off with the Atlanta Braves at Dodger Stadium.
It took a few games of playing back at Chavez Ravine for the Dodgers to finalize their walk-up songs for the season, but we’ve finally got the songs that you’ll be hearing all year long at Dodger Stadium.
A player’s walk-up music is often one of the most underrated aspects of the game of baseball. In a sport clouded by how much time is wasted, the walk-up song offers an opportunity for a player to not only entertain fans, but also provide a window into their personal playlist.
Each and every year, NBC LA brings you the walk-up songs for your Los Angeles Dodgers and this year is no different as we strive to bring you the very best stories throughout the season ultimately leading to another World Series title.
For some players, you’ll hear the same familiar song year after year—cough, cough, Clayton Kershaw—others, like to change it up constantly throughout the season. Some are superstitious with their walk-up music, and others just like what they like.
The Dodgers added some new pieces to the 2022 roster, and said goodbye to some good friends. Kenley Janson is now on those reigning champion Braves in his familiar role as closer. 2020 World Series MVP Corey Seager signed a 10-year, $325 million contract with the Texas Rangers, Max Scherzer joined the New York Mets, Albert Pujols returned to the St. Louis Cardinals, and outfielder AJ Pollock was traded to the Chicago White Sox just before the season began.
In their place, are some new faces. 2020 National League MVP Freddie Freeman has joined the Dodgers’ lineup, filling the void in the two-hole left by Seager. Former Angel Andrew Heaney is now in the Dodgers’ starting rotation, as is former Rockies pitcher Tyler Anderson. Daniel Hudson is back with the Boys in Blue after winning a World Series ring with the Washington Nationals in 2019, and Craig Kimbrel is now in the closer’s role vacated by Jansen.
Many fans have been eager to see what walk-up songs these new players select, especially Freeman, who famously lets his son Charlie pick his walk-up music each season.
