Houston walkup music leans Latin and country — Yordan Alvarez and José Altuve anchor a Latin-heavy walkup playlist, while the Texas-born players bring country picks. For more on the Astros' walkup tradition and other current roster picks, see the Houston Astros walkup page.
Why "Run This Town" works as a walkup
The drum hits and Rihanna's vocal entrance build the song into a coronation. The energy is confident without being cocky — perfect for veteran players who don't need to scream their identity. Slow tempo lets the hitter walk to the box at his own pace.

Use Raynel Delgado'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 Delgado 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.
