Expect to hear some Soundgarden, Audioslave, or even Temple of the Dog when Oakland Athletics third baseman Trevor Plouffe comes to the plate Thursday at the Coliseum.
Chris Cornell - the lead singer of all three bands - committed suicide Thursday morning in his hotel room while on tour in Detroit, the medical examiner told The Associated Press.
As a way of honoring one of his musical idols, Plouffe will change his walk-up music.
I'm shook right now. RIP Chris. I'm changing my walk-up music tonight so we can hear your voice blaring through the Coliseum speakers again. pic.twitter.com/xesLkGhTcf
