White House confirms President Biden won't throw first pitch at Nationals opening day

When President Joe Biden won election last November, the Washington Nationals were eager to get him on the pitching mound.

Shortly after Biden was declared winner on Nov. 7, the Nationals tweeted that they "look forward to hosting President-Elect Biden on Opening Day of the 2021 season."

It turns out that Biden won't make the trip. This week, at least.

After the Nationals told The Washington Post on Tuesday that Biden would not be throwing the first pitch for Washington's home opener against the New York Mets on Thursday, the White House confirmed the news, while hinting that Biden might make an appearance at Nationals Park sometime soon.
