Pirates pitcher Mitch Keller honored late rap star DMX by walking out to his hit song ‘Ruff Ryder’s Anthem’ during Saturday’s game against the Chicago Cubs.
The crowd ignited when the popular opening beat and lines of 1998 jam first came on, continuing to shout the lyrics after the song was cut off.
Earl ‘DMX’ Simmons passed away Friday at the age of 50. In his career, DMX was nominated for three Grammy Awards and is one of the highest-selling hip hop artists of all-time, with five of his albums going platinum.
