The Padres have a newfound star in the spotlight this season and he’s a natural. Even after throwing the first pitch of the game and not getting much more play whatsoever after that, he still managed to achieve highlight of the week by far.
Although Snoop Dogg is good at many things, unfortunately, baseball is not on that list of things we can undoubtedly count on him for. Snoop has previously mentioned how much of a baseball fan he is and he was eventually granted the honor to throw the first pitch at Wednesday’s [June 8] Padres vs. Braves game.
Padres outfielder Wil Myers seemed to be slightly pleased with Snoop’s baseball talents. He stated, “He actually has a really good arm. It’s not very accurate, but he’s got potential.”
Snoop dedicated his pitch to Hip Hop and the powers that be. Snoop reminded us of the last time a rapper made the headlines for his pitch, which was 50 Cent at a Mets vs. Pirates game two years ago. Snoop stated, “”I went 50 Cent today. I wanted to give tribute to my friend 50 Cent for throwing a wide-left. I wanted to go wide-right. So Hip Hop is here.”
Before it was all said and done, Snoop redeemed himself tremendously as he curated the vibes at Petco Park during a post game DJ set that attracted the likes of thousands.
