Good. Sports and politics should be separate. Besides, Trump was elected to do real work, not entertain you.
Had Hillary been elected, she wouldn't throw the first pitch either, because she is not in any shape to do so. She would probably have had another fainting spell and have to be carried off the field if she attempted it.

Since taking office on Jan. 20, 2017, Mr. Trump has reportedly been on the grounds of his golf courses or played golf elsewhere 176 times since becoming President, and that's as of March 30, 2019.
The cost of Trump's golf rounds to the American taxpayer varies by round and course, but it has totaled so far in the tens of millions of dollars.

Yet none were spent on this day to throw a baseball.

No problem, he’s doing good work and needs a break.
Baseball fans might or might not care about this. I don’t.
I agree with those who think Trump probably can’t throw a ball, FWIW.
At his age, and given how fat and out of shape he is, Trump probably can't throw a ball well now, but he probably could when he was a kid. He apparently was a decent baseball player when he was a kid. A sixth grade classmate remembers that Trump hit right handed with enough power that the fielders would shift to the left when he came up to bat. It was also remembered that Trump was so mad once when he made an out that he slammed the neighbor's bat he was using on the pavement, cracked the bat, and didn't apologize:
Mayor Rahm told him to go to a baseball game (and butt out out of the Jussie brouhaha). Perhaps Trump decided not to go just to PO Rahm .
