Yelich changes walk-up music to 'Roxanne' to troll fan
In a very cheeky move ahead of his first at-bat Tuesday night, Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich changed his walk-up song to the Police classic "Roxanne."

This came after Yelich was called out on Twitter by a fan named Roxane who wasn't pleased by leaked photographs from his "ESPN Body Issue" photoshoot. The Twitter user has since protected her account, but someone managed to get a screengrab of the incident and Yelich's initial response.
Telling Roxane to relax then changing his walk-up song to Roxanne tonight might be Christian Yelich’s best accomplishment this season. pic.twitter.com/j21Vs4Q2WE

The official photoshoot won't be available online until Sept. 6, but this initial set leaked Monday and showed Yelich in (almost) all his glory.
