The Rays got a DJ to spin a pregame set in their clubhouse

Athletes love music in the locker room. Some people don't. The Rays, thankfully, love music just as much as their players, and to prove it, they invited DJ Fresh to spin a set in the locker room before Saturday's game against the A's.

DJ Fresh, best known for providing beats for weekend games at the Trop, is used to helping out the team -- he aided in waking up the players up during Spring Training.

"Whatever allows these guys to relax and permits them to play to the best of their abilities…I'm for it," said Rays manager Joe Maddon.

Reason No. 761 why @raysjoemaddon is awesome--he brought a DJ to Rays clubhouse to loosen things up. Yes, seriously: twitter.com/RaysBaseball/s…
