Snoop Dogg took in a Milwaukee Brewers game Saturday at American Family Field, and he had a great seat.
In the Bally Sports Wisconsin Brewers TV booth.
The rapper and actor was in the neighborhood for a Saturday night show at the Potawatomi Casino Hotel, and stopped by for a visit with the Brewers broadcast team.
Dogg is an entertainer, and his visit definitely entertained.
After Cincinnati Reds shortstop Elly De La Cruz went deep in the hole and fired a strike to first for the out, Dogg exclaimed: “He’s got a rocket in his pocket.”

Dogg dropped some rhymes, but got stuck trying to come up with one for Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio. The rap icon even briefly handled some play-by-play duty. The Brewers posted a lengthy clip of his colorful appearance on X.

While Saturday’s Brewers appearance was a one-off just for fun, Dogg will be taking on a highly visible sportscasting role this summer, serving as a contributor for NBC’s primetime Olympics coverage. He’ll provide reports from Paris on the athletes and culture.
Fans certainly liked what they heard from the rapper on the Brewers broadcast.
MORE SNOOP DOGG BASEBALL COMMENTARY PLEASE https://t.co/ttPNpdfkBD

Charles Barkley may have retired (in a year from now) sports TV, but we’ll always have Snoop. https://t.co/xuikShKZLw
