There are walk-up songs, and then there's the immersive experience that is New York Mets closer Edwin Diaz's trot from the bullpen to the pitching mound at Citi Field.
We can't say the lights-out closer's dominant season -- Diaz has 26 saves and a 1.39 ERA and has struck out 91 batters in just 45u2153 innings pitched -- is due entirely to Blasterjaxx & Timmy Trumpet's "Narco," but the electric entrance certainly hasn't hurt.
The Diaz show has become such an attraction that when he enters the game in the ninth inning, the Mets TV broadcast doesn't even go to a commercial break.
