Minnesota Twins closer Jhoan Duran was recently activated from the injured list, and with that came the return of the best entrance in baseball.

Duran missed the first month of the season with a strained oblique muscle. He made his home debut in Friday night’s 5-2 win over the Boston Red Sox. Twins fans were ready with their cell phone lights for Duran’s awesome entrance.

That looked more like a Pitbull concert than a reliever coming out of the bullpen. Whoever came up with it clearly put a lot of effort into it.

Duran retired the side in order and struck out two to earn his second save of the season.

Most MLB fans thought New York Mets closer Edwin Diaz’s intense entrance would be impossible to beat (video here), but Duran’s is definitely on the same level.
