Ryan Vogelsong: Cinderella Man

When Ryan Vogelsong takes the mound at PNC Park, “Cinderella Man” by Eminem plays over the ballpark’s public address system. Every starting pitcher in the Major Leagues takes the mound to a song of their choosing. However, there are very few songs quite as fitting as Vogelsong’s.

In his professional career Ryan Vogelsong has seen it all. He started his career as a number five starter/long man for the Pittsburgh Pirates and San Francisco Giants, then he pitched in Japan for a few years, and then he returned to the Major Leagues and helped pitched the Giants to two World Series Championships.
