Trevor Hoffman of the San Diego Padres came in to ' Hell's Bells' by AC/DC, and Mariano Rivera of the New York Yankess had Metallica's ' Enter Sandman' as his music. It quickly became commonplace for dominant closers to enter the game with a specific theme song playing when they made the trip from the bullpen to the mound.

Williams was known for his reckless, but effective fastball until 1993, when he became known for giving up the home run to Joe Carter that won the World Series.

'Wild Thing' was his theme music, and was copied in real life by Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Mitch Williams, who entered games with the song playing. A version by Cheap Trick was used in the 1992 movie Encino Man, starring Brendan Fraser as caveman who comes back to life in a Los Angeles suburb.Ī cover by the punk band X with lead vocals by Exene Cervenka was a big part of the 1989 movie Major League, where Charlie Sheen played Rick 'Wild Thing' Vaughn, a relief pitcher with control problems who becomes a star when he gets glasses and starts throwing strikes.
