April 6, 200917 yr Living in Minnesota I talk to alot of Twins fans. Here are two amusing songs that I thought we all would get a kick out of: From the Minneapolis Star Tribune Richardson, a local musician and like Mauer a St. Paul native, goes by A&R for entertainment purposes. At a New Year's party Mauer had a couple years ago, the two of them started having a conversation about music. "He was explaining to me how in the past he was usually going up [to bat] to songs by [rapper] T.I., and that with T.I.'s new material he wasn't feeling the energy," Richardson said. At-bat music is a big deal to many players, so Richardson created "The Joe Mauer Theme Song." Mauer went on to win a batting title, and now it's time for Part II. What's different with this song? "This one was more motivational and more up Joe's alley and the type of beats he likes. He likes hard-hitting, almost 'feel the music through you' type stuff," Richardson said. "It's more personal than his last one. The last one stated a lot of facts about his career. When I showed him the new one for this season, he said, 'Yeah, let's make this an annual thing.'" And then there is this gem: 1985 recording of “Win Twins!” by Billy Barber and Terry Cashman. Enjoy.
