Tampa Bay Rays Walkup Songs

Tropicana Field · St. Petersburg

The Rays' walkup tradition

Tampa Bay walkups don't get the same media coverage as bigger-market teams, but the Rays roster has historically run one of the most diverse walkup playlists in MLB — Latin, hip hop, country, rock, all in rotation across a single lineup. The Tropicana Field PA setup is unusual (the dome makes the sound bounce), so songs with cleaner mixes work better.

The most iconic Rays walkup moment

Pete Fairbanks's closer entrances at the Trop have been one of the most consistent walkup moments of the last several seasons, even without the fanfare a bigger market would bring.

How to use Rays walkup songs for your team

Whether you're coaching Little League, travel ball, high school, or college baseball, picking a walkup song from a Tampa Bay Rays player is one of the cleanest ways to give a kid a confidence boost 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. Pick the Rays player whose walkup style fits the kid (power hitter, leadoff, closer, etc.)
2. Open the song's page on this site to see the recommended trim window
3. Build your roster in Walkup Pro, assign the song, and set the trim
4. Connect a Bluetooth speaker at the field and tap to play on game day
