PorchDrinking Playlist | Heavy Hitters
Welcome to baseball season! It’s no secret some songs get the crowd pumped. For this playlist, I had to listen to a few hours worth of “walk-out music” (tough, I know). What transpired is a list of songs that made me want to move and jam out. It also caused me to conjured up fond memories of baseball games throughout the years.
While a Yankees fan forever and always, the Bronx Bombers aren’t the only ones to grace this playlist.
