Snoop's cameo allowed the rapper to warm up a little ahead of his broadcast gig with NBC this summer.

Five key MLB rule changes in 2024
1. The pitch clock is reduced from 20 to 18 seconds with runners on base. It will remain at 15 seconds with bases empty.
2. When a pitching change is made, the innings timer will reset to 2:00 rather than 2:15 like it did last year.
3. Teams will only be allowed four mound visits per game in 2024, down from five last season.
4. Fielders and defenders blocking bases will be called for obstruction.
5. The runners' lane from home plate to first base has been widened to include the dirt between the grass and the white line.
He will also visit Paris landmarks and meet with Olympians and their families during the Games.
“I grew up watching the Olympics and am thrilled to see the incredible athletes bring their A-game to Paris," Snoop said.
"It’s a celebration of skill, dedication, and the pursuit of greatness.
"We’re going to have some amazing competitions and, of course, I will be bringing that Snoop style to the mix.
"It’s going to be the most epic Olympics ever, so stay tuned, and keep it locked.
