What is Carmen Mlodzinski's walk-up song?

Carmen Mlodzinski's walk-up song is "Highway Chile" by Jimi Hendrix, last confirmed in 2026 with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Hear the 30-second preview below, plus the earlier walk-up we have on record. Mlodzinski plays pitcher and wears #50. As a pitcher, Mlodzinski's song plays as he takes the mound — his entrance music and walk-up song are one and the same. Confirmed on the official MLB walk-up music page (2026-10-15).

Pittsburgh walkup culture leans country and classic rock — Andrew McCutchen and the Pirates' veterans set a tone that newer stars like Paul Skenes and Bryan Reynolds have largely followed. For more on the Pirates' walkup tradition and other current roster picks, see the Pittsburgh Pirates walkup page.

Use Carmen Mlodzinski's walkup style for your team

Whether you coach Little League, travel ball, high school, or college baseball, picking a walkup song from a star like Mlodzinski is one of the cleanest ways to give a kid confidence at the plate. The trick: most MLB walkups need a careful trim point — the 15-second window is rarely the song's first 15 seconds.

1. Build your roster in Walkup Pro
2. Search "Highway Chile" by Jimi Hendrix and assign it to the player who picked it
3. Set a custom trim point so only the best 15-20 seconds plays — most often the chorus or the drop, not the intro
4. Connect a Bluetooth speaker at the field and tap to play on game day
