New York Mets’ Mark Vientos Shares His Pregame Playlist Featuring Tame Impala, Travis Scott & More

From walk-up songs to clubhouse DJs, Major League Baseball and music go hand-in-hand. Each player across MLB has their own personal pregame playlist to get them in the zone. For New York Mets’ third baseman, Mark Vientos, that playlist spans multiple genres like rap, rock and a whole lot of EDM.

One of the first songs that brought his love of music and baseball together is “Beautiful Disaster” by 311. Vientos remembers waking at 11 years old to play MLB: The Show and getting hyped to the soundtrack. Fast forward 14 years, and on gamedays you may see him rapping along to “How U Feel” by Huncho Jack, which he knows every word to, or rocking out to some Nirvana thanks to his strength coach who put him onto the band.

But electronic music is the real star of his playlist. On his way to the field, Mark likes to listen to mellow tunes from Rufus Du Sol and Tame Impala, his favorite artist. Then, 30 minutes before the game starts, it’s time to crank up the intensity. That’s when Eli Brown and Lilly Palmer take center stage.

Mark’s passion for house and techno has him considering a future in EDM for himself. One of his friends in Miami is a DJ, and they’ve inspired Mark to take up mixing as a hobby. In the future, you might see Mark on the field and DJ Vientos on a festival lineup. In the meantime, you can check out his full pregame playlist below and add some of his favorites to your own personal playlist.
