Throwing the ceremonial first pitch at a baseball game can be quite the experience for celebrities and superstars invited. And like many, iconic rapper Snoop Dogg is no stranger to having a dicey memory of a lifetime of his first-ever pitch.

However, MLB has not only witnessed Snoop Dogg having a not so memorable first pitch; his fellow rapper, 50 Cent, (Curtis Jackson) also had a somewhat similar experience during his first-ever pitch.

While both the rappers are legends in the show business, the mound got the better of them. But unlike them, WWE Superstar Sasha Banks arrived at Fenway Park as a force to be reckoned with.

Sasha Banks throws her first-ever pitch in MLB like a boss

‘The Legit Boss’ Sasha Banks yesterday made her presence felt at Fenway Park as the Boston Red Sox faced the Chicago White Sox. There to support the Red Sox, Banks sported the WWE women’s tag team title in all its glory.

In addition, Sasha Banks was also the guest of honor and had the opportunity to throw the ceremonial first pitch. And suffice to say, the champion didn’t disappoint.

WWE posted a video of Sasha Banks on their social handle in which she expressed her gratitude. ‘The Legit Boss’ also mentioned that throwing the first pitch was a dream come true for her.

Banks said, “So, I just did that like a BOSS. I can’t believe that just happened. Wow! This is such a dream come true. I cannot even express how amazing this was; I am so thankful!”

Fenway Park in Boston erupted with the loudest cheer for one half of the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions. This was because Banks’ first pitch was on-target, unlike iconic rappers Snoop Dogg and 50 Cent.

How did ‘The Legit Boss’ assert her dominance over cousin Snoop Dogg?

Before throwing her first pitch, Sasha Banks straight up challenged her cousin Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent, and Mariah Carey. Banks said, “Watch out Mariah Carey, watch out Snoop, watch out 50 [Cent], because I’m coming for you!”

Wonder why ‘The Legit Boss’ called out to the trio? That was because Mariah Carey, Snoop Dogg, and 50 Cent have had not so memorable and rather hilarious first-pitch experiences in the past.

Even though Banks didn’t throw a perfect strike, she fired the ball on target. However, the former WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion’s pitch just bounced before reaching the catcher’s mitt.

Curtis Jackson, aka 50 Cent, back in 2014, threw the ceremonial first pitch at City Field before the Mets-Pirates game. Unfortunately, Jackson’s first pitch was miles away from the target, leaving the rapper a little embarrassed in front of a packed stadium.

The legendary Snoop Dogg experienced the same thing when he tried his first pitch before the Braves-Padres game. A pitch so horrid that the MLB commentator referred to it as “pitch out.”

However, getting one up on her cousin now, Sasha Banks humbled Snoop Dogg and other rappers by proving she’s ‘The Legit Boss’ in sports entertainment.
