The New York Mets are paying tribute to Brooklyn native and Beastie Boys member Adam Yauch Friday evening with their walk-up songs.
Every single Mets batter will walk up to a Beastie Boys song in order to honor the hip-hop artist after his death earlier on Friday.
Mets third baseman David Wright apparently got first dibs and claimed the song “Brass Monkey” to walk-up to each plate appearance.
Yauch, a.k.a. MCA, passed away earlier on Friday from his battle with cancer.
