N.L. MUSIC ALL-STARS
On Tuesday, I posted ESPN's Page 3 American League musical selections. Today, it's the National League.
(Again, 1 player from each team)
In order of divisional standings:
ATLANTA BRAVES --- OF Chipper Jones, Ozzy Osbourne "Crazy Train"
PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES --- 1B Jim Thome, Boston "Cool The Engines"
FLORIDA MARLINS --- 3B Mike Lowell, DMX "Party Up"
NEW YORK METS --- C Mike Piazza, Black Label Society (member of N.Y. Chapter)
MONTREAL EXPOS --- 3B Tony Batista, Ludacris "Stand Up" (default)
ST. LOUIS CARDINALS --- RHP Matt Morris, Steve Miller Band "The Joker"
CHICAGO CUBS --- OF Sammy Sosa, The Pointer Sisters "I'm So Excited"
HOUSTON ASTROS --- 1B Jeff Bagwell, Metallica (varies)
CINCINNATI REDS --- 1B Sean Casey, Van Halen "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love"
MILWAUKEE BREWERS --- RHP Danny Kolb, Godsmack "I Stand Alone"
PITTSBURGH PIRATES --- OF Craig Wilson, U2 "Elevation"
LOS ANGELES DODGERS --- OF Steve Finley, Peter Gabriel "Sledgehammer"
SAN DIEGO PADRES --- RHP Trevor Hoffman, AC/DC "Hells Bells"
SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS --- RHP Matt Herges, Rush "Tom Sawyer"
COLORADO ROCKIES --- 2B Aaron Miles, Soundgarden "Outshined"
ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS -- 1B Richie Sexson, Rage Against The Machine "Guerrilla Radio"
Memo to the folks at ESPN.com: It wouldn't hurt to do a little bit of Google searching. It's OUTSHINED by Soundgarden, not UNSHINED. It's not too much to ask of a national website to get things right. If I can get them right, they can too.
Why isn't there a song for the Mets? Well, the fact that Piazza is a Black Label Society chapter member says enough. It's certainly more interesting than the song selections of the 2004 Mets.
So go crank up some of these tracks. No wonder Kolb is having the season he's having. You simply can't lose with "I Stand Alone".
