The Standouts (Heroes Version) featuring Ty Herndon was released over all platforms on June 2, 2023. 

“When Bryan asked me to be a part of this song, I immediately said yes. At a time when there are so many folks trying to divide us, this song demonstrates the values of love and acceptance — and respecting people for exactly who they are. The truth is, everyone can be a standout in their own lives, and I hope this track inspires young and old alike to show up as their true, authentic selves. When that happens, we all win.” — Ty Herndon

“Ty is a true ‘standout’ because he came out before it was cool in country music-showing people that it’s ok to be proud of who you are. It is because of standouts like Ty that the next generation of country artists like me can be honest and sing authentically from the start of our careers. It’s an honor to have him as my duet partner on this song.” -Bryan Ruby

The Standouts (Heroes Version) feat. Ty Herndon

Centerfield is the newest single from trailblazing pro baseball player turned country artist Bryan Ruby. The single was released over all platforms on August 25, 2023.

“Centerfield” was originally released by John Fogerty, who also penned the song, in March 1985 as the B-side of “Rock and Roll Girls.” It was also the title track of Fogerty’s comeback album about a decade after leaving Creedence Clearwater Revival. A track that combined two of his passions, baseball and rock and roll, the song has been a fixture at baseball parks everywhere, played during team breaks and in between innings. Even the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York is known for playing it. The song also garnered a 1985 Grammy nomination for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance.

Spending most of his life on baseball fields, Bryan Ruby wants fans to know he considers it an honor to record a cover of such a beloved song. A journeyman professional ballplayer who has heard “Centerfield” played in baseball parks worldwide for years, it’s no surprise that the song holds a lot of meaning to him personally.  

“This song is an all-time classic and a personal favorite of mine,” expressed Bryan Ruby.  “When I think of a ‘baseball song,’ I immediately think of ‘Centerfield.’ As the son of a lifelong baseball coach and a longtime player myself, this ballpark anthem has truly been the soundtrack of our lives. I’m proud to put my own personal spin on it. It’s already been a nonstop summer. I’ve been crisscrossing the country at stadiums big and small singing the “Star Spangled Banner,” “God Bless America,” and doing pregame and postgame ballpark shows. I wanted my version of ‘Centerfield’ to channel the energy and excitement we feel at the stadium every day. We bumped up the tempo compared to the original version, added a key change in the final chorus, and layered in a few extra guitars in order to really blow the roof off of it.
