We should open multiple investigations in Congress and start the impeachment process immediately.
The horror.

That's not a reason to throw out the first pitch.
I'm not exactly seeing where it says in the Constitution where a President has to throw out the first pitch.

I guess Trump wasn't feeling it.
I'll feel it, if and when professional baseball ever returns to the US.
I have no interest in what are essentially glorified minor league teams.
The expansion from 24 teams diluted the talent pool and caused the quality of play to decline drastically. You have players who would never have made it out of the minors, because they suck, but now they're, um, "professionals."
The spike in errors per game, because you have horrid players who should be shot for even thinking about walking anywhere near a major league stadium, was conveniently addressed by ruling everything an "infield hit" instead of an error, which of course artificially inflates batting averages.
My dad is 72 and can still toss a baseball or a football.
President Trump's problem would more likely be his general physical fitness and his lack of athletic ability, vs. simply a question of age.
Great, your dad still can. Im 56 and can throw a football for a few passes before the shoulder is screwed. I pitched on my little league and HS baseball Team. I As long as I don't throw hard I can throw the ball for a little while. The shoulder is shot. Most people from not using those muscle groups or the range of motion will lose the ability to throw. Just because your dad can doesn't mean that he is the norm. In fact Ill say that your dad is exceptional. I would love to watch him play ball and I mean that with all sincerity.
