José Andrés, a Trump critic, to throw first pitch at World Series game Trump is expected to attend
The Nationals announced Friday that D.C. restaurateur and humanitarian José Andrés will throw out the first pitch ahead of World Series Game 5 on Sunday, should the series extend that long.
On Thursday, President Trump announced that he planned to attend World Series Game 5. Andrés, a naturalized U.S. citizen from Spain, has been a longtime critic of the presidents views on immigrants and halted plans to open a restaurant at the Trump International Hotel in downtown Washington, spurring a $10 million breach-of-contract lawsuit filed by the Trump Organization that was settled in April 2017.
In June 2018, after Trump disinvited the Philadelphia Eagles from a planned White House celebration of the teams Super Bowl championship, Andrés invited the Eagles to eat free at America Eats Tavern, his Georgetown restaurant.

If youre curious why the MF wont throw out the first pitch...its because he got righteously ridiculed for how hes pitched in the past. Photos here: https://democraticunderground.com/100212619313

(12,712 posts)How would he get his teeny-tiny hand around such a very big ball? He would have to spit the first pitch from his gooey face sphincter and that would make it really messy.
