Soundtrack
-
I never thought I would ever start a post discussing a game’s soundtrack, because on the surface it seems inconsequential to the quality or lack thereof of a game. But baseball is a unique sport, and music plays an integral part of the overall experience.
Like all previous versions, it’s a smorgasbord of musical genres that includes a few of which I wouldn’t normally gravitate towards; and yet, I like those too because every single song evokes the spirit and feeling I get of being at a ballpark.
Whether it be songs I could see MLB stadiums playing as their teams take the field for the first time (Lights by Band of Horses, among other), or just general background music filling the stadium as you walk along the concourse thirty minutes before the first pitch.
Compiling a list of songs across multiple musical styles that all capture the essence of the sport is no easy feat. But in my opinion they absolutely nailed it this year.

I'd have to politely disagree on this year's soundtrack.

I will as well. I usually either like the soundtrack or am indifferent towards it, but the one this year just isn't my favorite. if you're like me and don't care for it, I just turned music off in game and have spotify running on separate speakers.
