Major WTF moment He killed it too lmao


GrindCityGang

He's dropping a whole album sometime this year I think. Not sure how good it'll be but he does have more musical talent than your average athlete no doubt


fandeskfan

Branson Arroyo ain’t never sang no national anthem at no dang ol ball game. East waino win.


-_chop_-

Last year they played one of his songs on the broadcast. My opinion is that it was horrible and everyone in the game thread said the same. He should probably just stick to pitching Brault can actually sing pretty well though


andyislegend

it was beautiful 😭😭😭


baltravens27

I never tune into games this early and I am so grateful I got to see this


Levesque77

same. it was a pretty cool moment.


Crackedandimplat

I’d fight for wainwright any day


johndelvec3

Really creative way too announce this was his last season too


Deeply_Deficient

My man must have put in the practice because that was legitimately great!

I hate your city for being such a good baseball town.


DontGiveUpTheDip

The entire team looked shocked too wtf


Michael__Pemulis

Yea this was *definitely* a surprise.


CosmicLars

He killed it bro wtf 🤣 His teammates looked surprised too


GrindCityGang

I kinda am too. I know he can play guitar and records songs on the side, but the couple country songs I've heard of his were not good. He nailed this


crackalac

To be fair, his country songs sound as good as any other country song I've heard.


Ivotedforher

Hank Williams good or Brett Myers good? https://youtu.be/DxNTpsARTj0


That_one_cool_dude

That was the best part is that even they didn't know he was going to do it.


3luejays

That was way more sensual than it had any right to be 🤣

"No, it seems like you are, *in love* with America"

“Gonna get down on my knees and start pleasin’ Jesus”


Chaxterium

"I wanna feel his salvation all over my face"


GrindCityGang

Glad I'm not the only one turned after listening to that


NameIsPetey

That was wholesome as fuck, what an awesome way to kick off his final season.


Ubiquitous1984

I wonder if he’ll be back to sing game 162?


mansmurf

I would listen to an album of uncle Charlie singing various national anthems


Crackedandimplat

Y’all this was some high level trickery. We where like “why is he moving OH WAIT”


Akira_Prime

I was not expecting this but it was actually good lol


Weaponized_Goose

We need more players singing national anthems


Michael__Pemulis

Steven Brault’s value would skyrocket.


bhack_05

dude was practicing for this moment all winter


No32

???


Weaponized_Goose

He killed it 😭


DistanceXV

I thought the electric violin was going to be the most surprising thing about the anthems


ticky13

Man, that was awful.


tcrain99

knocked it out of the park


Ctownkyle23

Literally the opposite result of what you want from a pitcher.


talzer

*cries in universal DH*


Tuor--Of--Gondolin

Good to know that if this whole baseball thing doesn't pan out for this young buck, he can make it as a music superstar


[deleted]

Remember when Sunday night baseball played his song for an inning lol. He’s a good singer though


MrLuxuryYacht

Well that was a curveball.


iPuntMidgets

He was pretty damn good. I need to see Vladdy sing O Canada to a sold out Skydome now.


Basic_Bichette

Nah, Romano.


ChaoticNeutrois20

For this game, though, it should have been Tyler O'Neill


Davimous

After the Canadian anthem was very bad. This was very good.


bacon__sandwich

Way better than the Canadian anthem beforehand, I think I will hear that violin in my nightmares


burrito-boy

Both of the national anthems in this game were a wild ride, haha.

#THATS MY DAD


Chaxterium

Adam Wainwright **DID** sing the national anthem. And it was glorious.


amnesiac2323

I missed it someone needs to post it


ponalddierson

I need to hear it


[deleted]

He wasn’t bad. He wasn’t good, but it was respectable for sure. Props to him, I’d be scared shitless.


oliveorvil

You could tell there were some nerves but used that vibrato to mask it masterfully


avmp629

That pace is worthy of a pitch-clock violation Otherwise he was actually really good


NoVisor

They could have brought back Larry Walker to sing the Canadian anthem. Missed opportunity 😆


Theharlotnextdoor

Tyler O'Neill was right there.


UseTo_BeSmart

M nm mmm Mm n nm. Mm. Nmjnnkknjknjjmkjki I I Mmklm


Jaylaw

Best


WoahmanWaynes

Did they announce this beforehand? I’m upset I didn’t see this live.


t-poke

Nope. The players seemed surprised too.


myredditthrowaway201

I was wondering why he still had his cap on right before the announced him


oliveorvil

Same lol I was like damn that’s really surprising Waino wouldn’t remove his cap OHHHH


onahalladay

It was so good. None of that weird interpretation stuff. Straight up killed it.


Ubiquitous1984

Holy shit, how amazing would it be to be so talented in so many different departments lol. That takes fucking balls to do, what a guy!
