Whether you coach Little League, travel ball, high school, or college baseball, picking a walkup song from a star like Shaw 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.
