J.J. Putz Gets Interrupted By "Kickstart My Heart," Spikes Ball
Theories confirmed by this clip of J.J. Putz spiking the ball after his warm-up is interrupted by a little Mötley Crüe include a) It is never not funny to see pitchers fail to deliver the ball home and b) Baseball announcers don't really love the Crüe.
That snatch of song, as you might know, is the opening riff of "Kickstart My Heart," which does sound kind of like a cow mooing to the uninitiated. (No one playing for the Diamondbacks or Mets uses it as walk-up or entrance music, for the record.)
