WVC in the Minors: Matt Wotherspoon striking out the opponent

<p><em>If you walk into any baseball clubhouse or locker room at any level &#8212; professional, college or even high school &#8212; there&#8217;s a good chance music will be blasting out of someone&#8217;s speakers. It could be country, rock, hip-hop and rap, R&amp;B, reggae or Latin music.</em></p><p><em>The same can be said as teams go through their pre-game workouts or players walk up to the plate or out of the bullpen.</em></p><p><em>Music is everywhere in baseball and it&#8217;s extremely diverse.</em></p><p><em>Each week we&#8217;ll take a look at how music influences each player&#8217;s game.</em></p><p><strong>Dustin Fowler</strong></p><p><strong>OF</strong></p><p><strong>Cadwell, Ga.</strong></p><p><strong>Who plays the best music? </strong>Well, we have two guys to choose from. We have Mason (Williams) and (Ernesto Frieri). Neither one of them are my pick for music, but Ernesto plays (electric dance music) a little bit more, so I have to go with him. I&#8217;m more of an EDM, country kind of guy. So I&#8217;ll have to lean toward Ernasty over Mason.</p><p><strong>What&#8217;s your pregame playlist? </strong>I don&#8217;t tend to play anything. I like to keep peace of mind and try not to get too (hyped), but if I was to before a game, I&#8217;d listen to EDM.</p><p><strong>What&#8217;s your walk-up song? </strong>It&#8217;s EDM as well: &#8216;How To Love (Boombox Cartel Remix).&#8217; I like the beat to it.</p><p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Fpl8sGwh-Ac" width="560" height="315"></iframe></p><p><strong>Who has the oddest walk-up song?</strong> I would have to go with Eddy (Rodriguez), though, with the throwback. I&#8217;d have to go with him. (&#8216;Fireman&#8217; by Lil Wayne&#8217;s) nothing you&#8217;d expect.</p><style>
