And, while John Smoltz no longer closes games for Atlanta, his entrance to AC/DC’s “Thunderstruck” was infuriating. It’s no surprise that the Yankees and the Braves, the two most reviled teams in baseball, have had the most memorable closer themes of the past few years.Ītlanta’s bad-boy closer (and immigrant-basher) John Rocker managed to inspire such hatred that Twisted Sister asked him to stop playing one of their songs when he went to the mound. The right song will crystallize an ill will that’s already there. Your fans already know how nasty you are, and they want everyone else in the league to hate you for it. But a closer theme that’s merely scary and exciting hasn’t done its job.
