Snoop Dogg is a man of many talents, but baseball's definitely not his forté. On Wednesday, the rapper threw the ceremonial first pitch at the San Diego Padres game against the Atlanta Braves but was comically off target. Wearing a jersey embroidered with the words "Coach Snoop" on the back, the star chuckled after totally missing the mark. Joking about the pitch afterwards, Snoop tweeted his buddy 50 Cent, who also had a historically awful first pitch in 2014. got u beat cuz @50cent https://t.co/JgJMaEfJZx— Snoop Dogg (@SnoopDogg) June 8, 2016 "Got u beat cuz," he wrote.

Snoop Dogg either smoked too much weed or not enough when he threw out the first pitch at a Padres game on Wednesday. The rapper took to the mound dressed in a jersey that read Coach Snoop on the back. What exactly Snoop is a coach of is anybody’s guess, because based on this pitch, it certainly isn’t baseball. In keeping with the fine tradition of celebrities throwing out terrible first pitches, Snoop threw wide right, nearly landing the ball in the stands. He laughed it off though, as we’re sure everyone in the stadium did as well.
