`Careless Whisper’ turns clock back as Reddick homers
Josh Reddick brought back `Careless Whisper’ as his walkup music Wednesday and walked away with his 16th homer.The A’s have tried most everything to get going this year, so when Josh Reddick dipped into the audio file to bring back George Michael’s “Careless Whisper’’ for his walkup music, probably it shouldn’t have been much of a surprise.
Reddick, who got a cult following from swaying fans in the right field bleachers and around baseball when he went to “Careless Whisper’’ last year, had said on more than one occasion that he wasn’t going to bring it back, ever. He’d moved on.
