A familiar Black Eyed Peas beat was pumping through the sound system in the Blue Jays’ clubhouse this afternoon, but something seemed a little off with the lyrics. Wait… that’s because the song was about Jose Bautista.

There’s an internet video out there done to the beat of Boom Boom Pow, but it’s a remix dedicated to the power surge from Mr. Bautista this season. The Blue Jays were loving it, a handful of players crowding around a cell phone to watch the short music video.

As they howled with laughter, Bautista stood a few feet away at his locker, doing his best not to take part in the fun. There’s no denying that he was enjoying the moment, though. After the players finished watching the video and yucking it up, one came over and gave Bautista a big hug from behind.

“Yeah, home run king!” the player shouted.

Bautista just smiled.

Watch it for yourself if you want.

That familiar Black Eyed Peas beat was pumping through the sound system in the Blue Jays’ clubhouse this afternoon, but the lyrics seemed a bit off. Turns out the Boom Boom Pow song underwent a little bit of a remix and the players were loving it.

Crowded around one player’s cell phone, a group of Jays watched and laughed a video of an internet video dedicated to Jose Bautista’s home run surge this season. Bautista was not among the players watching, but he was undoubtedly enjoying it as he hung out a few feet away at his locker.

Check it out for yourself…
