Ugh

The Orange One will throw out first pitch at Yankees home opener next month.

1. Sorry, New York can have him!

(I'm sure it doesn't want him, as a native New Yorker.)

HAPPILY, WE Nats have/had Dr. Fauci!

[DeeDeeNY]

5. You win

[elleng]

7. Yes, Dee.

SOME day, NY will win again (NOT the yanks, tho, I hope, as a Forever Brooklyn Dodger!!!)

[DeeDeeNY]

9. Wow. That's 63 years ago

I’ve only been a Yankees fan for 61 years

[elleng]

10. Well, we can do THIS anyway, right?

[Bev54]

2. Too bad there were not fans there, it would not be pretty

That is likely why he wants to do it, nobody there to boo him.

3. The Orange One will be thrown out two months later

Look at the bright side.

4. He's going to have to get over today's kneeling a lot faster than his usual sulk-fests

if that's going to happen.

[DeeDeeNY]

6. He had to be fuming that Fauci threw that pitch tonight

[underpants]

8. He was throwing with Mariano Rivera on the South Lawn tonight

Part of a Little League event. He actually looked like he knew what he was doing.

11. No Spitting

Before tonight's game, they showed a MLB sign that said something to the effect that there would be "no spitting, no tobacco chewing, etc." So, what happens? The first Yankees batter (and the first batter in the whole season) spits and approaches the plate. I guess old habits are hard to break.

12. Don't count on it. New Yorkers can't stand trump. This is subject to change.

[Capt. America]

13. The Yankmees can have him.

[DeeDeeNY]

14. Much better

He has now decided not to show up after all. Claims he’s too busy!
