CLEMSON — Catcher Jacob Jarrell is using music to uplift Clemson baseball.
Latin music is prevalent inside the Tigers' locker room, and one song in particular, "Temperature" by Sean Paul, energizes and inspires the team to dance, clap and enjoy the 2005 single. Its impact moved the locker room so much that Jacob changed it to his walk-up song in place of last season's tune, “Imma Be” by Black Eyed Peas.
"It gets the guys going in the locker room, so hopefully, this'll get the bunker energy up in the dugout," Jarrell said.
Jarrell's song selection is one of many tunes Clemson and its fans enjoy at Doug Kingsmore Stadium when batters approach the plate and pitchers take the mound.
Some Tiger players are still using the same walkup songs as last year, including outfielder Cam Cannarella (“Let Me Clear My Throat” by DJ Kool), infielder Jarren Purify ("family ties" by Baby Keem and Kendrick Lamar) and outfielder Jack Crighton (“In the Air Tonight” by Phil Collins).
Some players have changed songs this season like pitchers Aidan Knaak and Ethan Darden. New additions to Clemson, like outfielder Dominic Listi, infielder Josh Paino and infielder/catcher Luke Gaffney, have also brought in their flavor from their previous destinations.
Here are Clemson's walk-up songs this season:
