Josh Reddick Honored Rowdy Roddy Piper with Bagpipe Walkup Music
By Kyle Koster
Josh Reddick is a big fan of professional wrestling. The Oakland Athletics outfielder once had his beard shaved off by Daniel Bryan and conducted an interview in Ultimate Warrior attire. So it was only natural he paid tribute to Rowdy Roddy Piper on Friday.
Reddick used bagpipes for his walkup music as an homage to the recently departed wrestler.
.@RealJoshReddick honors the late Roddy Piper by using bagpipes as his walkup music tonight. Nice tribute.

Reddick also used the music back in 2012 during his best season as a pro.
Last night, however, he went 0-for-4 in a 2-1 loss to the Cleveland Indians.
But, hey. It’s the thought that counts.
