Martin and I do the walk up songs for Baker’s team. Everyone seems to really enjoy it, especially Baker. He has been begging for Barbie Girl to be his walk up song for about a week. I was very against it. I thought he needed to be focused and it could cause a distraction in the dug out. #nofunmom
Well, for his last at bat for the game, I decided to play Barbie Girl for his walk up song. He didn’t react at all as he walked up, total focus. Then, on the first machine pitch, he creams it for a triple. So, Barbie Girl is his official walk up song.
After the game, he told me that he didn’t smile when he heard it because he wanted to prove to me he was serious and doing what his team needs him to do. OMG- He does listen to some things I say to him.
