Cincinnati Reds Walkup Songs

Great American Ball Park · Cincinnati

The Reds' walkup tradition

Cincinnati walkup culture is anchored by Elly De La Cruz's electric at-bats — his walkups have ranged across Latin, hip hop, and reggaeton. The Reds roster's young core has brought a more current walkup style to a historically traditional franchise.

The most iconic Reds walkup moment

Joey Votto's 17-year tenure with the Reds brought consistently understated walkup picks — the antithesis of flashy modern walkup theater. His era ended in 2023 but his at-bats still define Reds walkup memory.

How to use Reds walkup songs for your team

Whether you're coaching Little League, travel ball, high school, or college baseball, picking a walkup song from a Cincinnati Reds player is one of the cleanest ways to give a kid a confidence boost at the plate. The trick: most MLB walkups need a careful trim point — the 15-second window is rarely the song's first 15 seconds.

1. Pick the Reds player whose walkup style fits the kid (power hitter, leadoff, closer, etc.)
2. Open the song's page on this site to see the recommended trim window
3. Build your roster in Walkup Pro, assign the song, and set the trim
4. Connect a Bluetooth speaker at the field and tap to play on game day
