Bobby Jenks Entrance Song

What was Bobby Jenks's entrance song?

Bobby Jenks's entrance song was "Here Comes the Boom" by P.O.D. with the Chicago White Sox during his 2005–2011 career. Bobby Jenks emerged from the bullpen to P.O.D.'s “Here Comes the Boom” during the White Sox' 2005 World Series championship season.

Chicago walkup culture on the South Side is rooted in 1970s organist Nancy Faust, who effectively invented modern walkup music by playing themed riffs for individual White Sox players. For more on the White Sox' walkup tradition and current roster picks, see the Chicago White Sox walkup page.

Set up a Jenks-style walkup for your team

Want a kid on your team to come to the plate (or jog in from the bullpen) like Jenks? It takes about a minute in Walkup Pro:

1. Add the player to your roster
2. Search "Here Comes the Boom" by P.O.D. and assign it
3. Set a custom trim so the best 15–20 seconds plays — for "Here Comes the Boom" that's usually the hook, not the intro
4. Connect a Bluetooth speaker at the field and tap to play on game day
