Heath Bell Entrance Song

What was Heath Bell's entrance song?

Heath Bell's entrance song was "Blow Me Away" by Breaking Benjamin with the San Diego Padres during his 2004–2014 career. Heath Bell sprinted from the Petco Park bullpen into save situations to Breaking Benjamin's “Blow Me Away” as the Padres' closer from 2009 to 2011.

San Diego walkup culture is one of the most distinct in MLB. For more on the Padres' walkup tradition and current roster picks, see the San Diego Padres walkup page.

Set up a Bell-style walkup for your team

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

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