Use Royce Lewis'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 Lewis 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.
- Build your roster in Walkup Pro
- Search "Heartless" by Kanye West and assign it to the player who picked it
- Set a custom trim point so only the best 15-20 seconds plays — most often the chorus or the drop, not the intro
- Connect a Bluetooth speaker at the field and tap to play on game day
