Baseball’s World Series is going on right now, and as a depressed Yankees fan, I need a reason to get excited. Fortunately, Mike Tompkins has come through in the clutch. The supremely talented a capella musician has teamed up with Pepsi for a remixed version of ‘Take Me Out To The Ball Game’ that uses nothing but natural baseball sounds and Tompkins’ versatile voice.
The video is housed on Maker Studios‘ Maker Music channel, and as with everything else Tompkins does, it’s pretty sweet. The icing on the cake is filming location: Wrigley Field, the home of the Cubs, which as per usual is empty this time of year.
