In 2009, it was used in an advertisement for the game . It raised digital download sales of the song worldwide considerably,[3] but in Britain the song sold so many copies after the ad aired that it re-charted that week (November 21, 2009) at number 73, a new peak. Major League Baseball pitcher Jesse Litsch used the song as his entrance music during the 2011 season.[4] Major League Baseball pitcher Justin Verlander uses the song as his entrance music.[5]
