The first theme is best suited for a close game between two powerhouse teams. But there's something really special about hearing the NFL one as the pitcher walks off the mound after a dominant inning during the postseason.
Each sport originally had its own respective themes. In 2007, MLB and NASCAR got updated themes. In 2010, it was decided to use the NFL theme for all three sports. Since the next NASCAR season started in 2011, it was held back until then for that sport. In 2016, the staff concluded the theme didn't fit well with racing and brought back the original theme. But the reason why the MLB theme was brought back in 2020 was due to fan complaints. Now each sport has its own respective themes again.
To be honest, Fox needs to designate the NFL theme for Nascar's "crown jewel" races like Daytona, Talladega, and Charlotte. The other races can have their own song in my opinion
Many sports already had their respective themes. College Football was formerly on the NFL Theme, then switched to its own unique theme due to complaints-ironic as people were complaining about a football theme being used for football. PBB (Bowling) had its own theme, FOX Soccer has its own theme, NHRA (drag racing) has its own theme, hell WWE doesn't use the NFL theme.
Can’t wait to hear this when baseball returns this season! It’s gunna be a good year for the dodgers!! Now that we have Freddie Freeman! Our power rankings couldn’t be any more higher! looking forward to this season! LETS GO DODGERS!!
The NFL theme needs to stay with the NFL and the other needs to be the full time Fox Sports theme. The teams that have Fox Sports (ex Fox Sports Cincinnati) run the baseball theme. Wake up Fox Sports!
sportshistorian I'm not gonna lie, I love the old theme and it brings back memories of when me and my old man would watch some postseason baseball, but them using the NFL theme isn't horrible, it actually gets me pumped up for 1st pitch :)
Omgpop34 Amen to that! I hate how Joe Buck casually calls games over the regular season and then he's anointed with calling the entire postseason. Would love to hear the dulcet tones of Jon Miller on television again. He's been virtually made redundant on Giants radio in recent time.
1:28 “Away we go it’s game number five on a Sunday night at Wrigley Field the 89th and final home game for the Cubs at Wrigley for the entire 2016 season”
The NFL theme fits the NFL and old theme is perfect for baseball. The NFL theme has the sound of “it’s a beautiful day here in Denver not a cloud in the sky as the Broncos prepare to kick off to the 49ers...it’s an opening theme.... the old theme goes perfect with MLB score updates across AL and NL after say bottom of the 5th
Wow, This is awesome. I discovered this because I was looking for the FOX NFL theme and saw a comment about how they wish they would bring back the Old FOX MLB theme so I got curious and damn... why did they replace the original? This is perfect for Baseball. Use the NFL theme for the NFL, not both MLB and NFL
1:28 "hello it is tine for game 6 of the world series, the dodgers take on the Tampa Bay Ray's, the fans are loving it dodgers are looking for their 7th world series trophy in their franchises, hi im Joe Buck and Matt Vasgersian" you love to hear it
I honestly love both themes... just LEGEND. But my favorite sport is baseball and I get a crazy chill down my spine every year on opening day when I first hear the MLB theme. Such simple pleasures make life worth living! ❤️
The first one is nostalgic. Growing up in the 90s and 00s, I always looked forward to Saturdays cause it was, at the time, earlier games before they switched them to 4. Watching my Braves on Fox almost every other Saturday afternoon with my dad and brother are memories I will always cherish forever
I'm so sad I can't hear this song anymore on FSN broadcasts anymore, now that Bally Sports is here, RIP to this theme song on FSN broadcasts but you can still hear it on FOX and FS1 broadcasts.
Welcome to Baseball Night In America. It’s a nice night for baseball at Angels Stadium of Anaheim, as the Los Angeles Angels take on the Chicago White Sox in game 3 of a 4 game set.
Remember this theme when baseball used to come on in the late 90’s and early 2000’s… showed the players warming up, aerial view of the field and brief commentary.. theme song alone geared you up to watch the game… memories
The first one always makes me nostalgic of watching baseball on what used to be Fox Sports and hearing the end of it as the channel went to a commercial break. Like sharpdressedcat said, It would always be so nostalgic to see a pitcher walking off the mound to the dugout and hear the end of the theme right before commercials.
Alright Thank You Kevin. Welcome to Baseball Night in America and Welcome to Angels Stadium. The Chicago White Sox Take on Mike Trout and the Rest of the Los Angeles Angels here on Fox. Welcome inside the Broadcast Booth. I’m Joe Buck along with the Hall of Famer John Smoltez.
1998! First time ever hearing this!! Couldn’t get enough of it but my Sox got bumped in the first round but the next year when Pedro was in his prime going up against that powerful cleveland lineup! I remember being so stoked for that series with this theme playing and seeing Pedro with his game face on 😂 thinking “let’s get these MFers back!” 😂 miss my childhood!!!
Good evening everyone and welcome to Baseball Night in America. We have a great matchup here tonight as the Shohei Ohtani and the Los Angeles Dodgers take on the San Francisco Giants in game 2 of a 4 game set. Now welcome inside the broadcast booth alongside Cole Poppen and Herold Reynolds, I'm Matteo Carlini.
I wish Fox would go back to the "revamped" version of the MLB theme (FS1 uses in the regular season). The "football" theme is used for baseball, football, NASCAR and boxing. It is 24 years old.
I might be one of the very few that think this way but I think that the NFL Fox song is also pretty cool as the MLB fox song as well. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I like the song for both NFL and MLB
Best of both sports exactly! When I heard the NFL theme for the 2020 World Series between my dodgers and the rays! It made the World Series even more intense and fun to watch!
The first one reminds me of random NL Central battles with a 1pm start at the beginning of the summer, while the second one is an NFL Game of the Week at 4:25pm in October after the Bengals got blown out back in 2018 lol
I used to sit in my backyard with my family with the TV on, a fire going and we would roast smores watching baseball, best experience of my life sports wise
The older one makes me think of when I was a kid and I had just showered and I was in my pajamas getting ready to watch playoff baseball. It’s so nostalgic I’m glad it’s back!
1:28 welcome the game 6 of the world series, tonight Los Ángeles Dodgers leads this series 3-2 against tampa bay rays, they need only one victory to win the trophie on 2020
Just makes me think of the beautiful month of October.
Amen, brother!

The original theme gives me chills. Brings me right back to the 2000s watching baseball as a kid.

Hey, the silver lining is I get a hit of nostalgia when I hear the 90s theme. If they never got rid of it, it wouldn't sound so good.

They do, for gamebreaks on FOX, just like how NFL on FOX does gamebreaks.

Fox Sports regional networks still use the old theme
They use the remixed new one
Fox Sports Detroit used the old one until at least 2011-12
You can still here it on FS Detroit but just the beginning and end
The old theme ROCKED!!!!!
And since 2020, rocks again!

Well darn...
1:22 the end of the MLB song is the opening riff to the NFL theme. Never noticed that until they were put together. Thank you!
1:20-1:28 hearing this before a commercial break for a dodger post season game made every game so badass and eager for the game to continue!
Baseball, the most intense anime fight of all.
Time for this great piece again

It should be the current MLB theme for regular season and the NFL theme for postseason. That would be awesome.
@@MKISports I endorse
The NFL theme wasn't used for baseball until the 2010 NLCS. In fact, there was a jazzy version of the MLB theme that debuted in 2007.
looks like you were wrong there.
