This is AWESOME!

I don't know who "Omar" is but the light show is definitely pretty dang cool.

Anyone from balmer who doesn't know omar should get downvoted!

Cool light show! Love Omar but kind of wished they did something with The Mountain.

Also missed opportunity to use the line right after the whistle. “You come at the king, you best not miss.”

Meh.  Id rather something a little more amped up like the Mets do with Diaz

He’s a character from the Wire. Iconic series set in Baltimore.

You would have to watch “The Wire.” A very Baltimore reference.

It's fun and one more contemporary change marking the team's relevance, but something's about the quiet nature of the whistle along with the fast/big lights doesn't go together.Once the crowds grow the fan noise will drown out the whistle. 

Would be cooler to me if the lights stayed darker and built more slowly while Bautista made his way closer to the mound only to reveal him there at full illumination. More scary to me that way.

 

I like the matador trumpets I've seen video of. Maybe the Mets?

I agree. Maybe have the whistle be louder and do it more than once. I do like the trumpets though for Diaz.

Yeah I agree! That seems like a natural great fit for the moment. Plus it's exciting instead of creepy/unsettling.

I like the way you’re going there.

Thanks, guys. Crime shows aren't even remotely my thing so I have never seen it.

[Jammer7]

There was already a King Felix. Not sure how much I like “the mountain.” Maybe “Flex?”

I get the criticism about celebrating something so sinister as Omar’s violent criminal nature. I just don’t take it that seriously I guess. It is definitely very Baltimore. 

Mo Rivera came out to “Enter Sandman.” That was pretty creepy too, when you think about it.

For shame
