—@Mike_StudStroman's walk-up music for the upcoming season was suddenly an easy choice, because what better music to walk out to than a track that has your own bars on it?

—@PulseTactixBefore sharing the stage, Stroman and Stud's friendship started with them sharing the mound.
The duo met as Duke Blue Devils teammates, where Stroman split time between starting pitcher, second base and shortstop and Stud was a closer before Tommy John surgery ended his big league dreams.

—@MLBNetworkPRNeedless to say, fans (and teammates) were pretty psyched that Stud and Stroman had teamed up again in the studio.
