Orioles VP John Angelos Says He Doesnt Want Trump Throwing First Pitch

BALTIMORE (WJZ) — Executive Vice President of the Orioles John Angelos said on the B-more Opinionated Podcast this week that President Donald Trump would need to apologize for some of the statements he’s made before he’d be OK with him throwing out the first pitch at a game.

While many are celebrating the president, there are still many critics including Orioles Executive Vice President John Angelos, who expressed disappointment in the commander in chief.

This all started when Angelos was asked whether there were plans to have Mr. Trump throw out a first pitch at Camden Yards.

in his humiliation on the national teevee. I love the smell of schadenfreude in the morning.
