ESPN enlisted the help of notable musicians to provide their distinctive interpretations of the "Baseball Tonight" theme song during the 2011 season. We've already featured these versions of the song on air and in the ESPN Music section; now we want you to help us crown the best version of them all.

For 11 weeks, we'll have two artists square off in a poll for you to vote on. The winner will then face the next artist on the schedule and so on until the final week, when we'll see who is the last one standing (full schedule at the bottom).

Rapper and producer J. Cole is still on a roll, winning for the fourth consecutive week by defeating singer-songwriter Steve Earle in last week's matchup. Now Cole takes on Black Label Society guitarist Zakk Wylde in Week 9. So vote in the poll at the right of this page now through Sept. 29.
