Baseball features a ton of excitement, drama, and cheering. And while baseball cheers and chants aren’t as popular around the game as softball chants and cheers, they are still a fun and exciting way to drive motivation and energy to any baseball team.
Imagine it’s the bottom of the ninth, the batter approaches home plate with the game-winning run on second base, and no noise can be heard. What would be going through that batter’s or pitcher’s mind? Confusion and a chance to overthink the situation. In comparison, that same batter hears fans cheering his name while sending a jolt of energy through his body.
Baseball cheers to get a team pumped or send extra motivation is a great way to potentially change a game’s outcome. Here are the 50 Best baseball chants and cheers.

Different Types of Baseball Chants?
A game plan is needed to know what chant should be used for what situation. Little league baseball chants are suited for younger kids, while baseball chants and taunts are more suited for older kids playing in higher competitive leagues such as travel baseball.
Here is a quick look at the different baseball chants and cheers.
Baseball Chants for the Dugout
A baseball chant for the dugout is a chant or cheer that players and/or coaches can perform within their team’s dugout. These chants could be performed by players when their team is batting or when their team is on the field.
Baseball Chants for the Field
Baseball chants for the field are chants that a player or players can use when their team is out on the field or by others, such as fans in the stands to motivate the defensive team.
Baseball Chants for Batters
Baseball chants for batters are chants or cheers used to help drive motivation to the batter at the plate.
Baseball Chants for Pitchers
While many chants are used to build motivation, baseball chants for pitchers can be both for encouragement and a way to distract them. If the batting team uses a baseball cheer aimed at the pitcher, it is designed to get in the head of the pitcher and potentially create a mishap from taking place. Meanwhile, a field team or the pitcher’s fans use a baseball cheer for him; this could deliver extra motivation.
Funny Baseball Chants
Similar to any standard baseball cheer and chant, funny baseball chants can sound funny or include words that the teams will think are funny. These could include something like “pitchers throwing up, get him a bucket” or “pitchers got a big butt.”
Little League Cheers and Chants
With any chant or cheer used for baseball, listening and screening the words being yelled out is always recommended. This is mainly for little league cheers, as most little league baseball players should only hear the right words for their age groups.
Baseball Chants for Fans
For many of these cheers and chants built for players, there are many other baseball chants for fans that you may hear more at a baseball game. The fans of one specific team perform these chants and cheers to drive up motivation.
Baseball Chants and Taunts
Lastly, any team is looking for a competitive advantage as long it is done safely and fairly. This is where baseball chants and taunts intended to confuse the other teams into a mistake come into play.
***
While baseball chants and cheers may not be as common as softball chants and cheers, they are still a part of the game and can be if they are used respectfully while showing sportsmanship as a fun way to drive extra motivation and pump up the crowd.
