I drafted a post late last night (included below), titled: "Yankees Must Clearly Dis-Invite Trump To Throw Out First Pitch"
This morning, Andy Martino, who covers the Yankees for the SNY network and website, tweeted:
If there's a way for the Yankees to wiggle out of this and somehow allow Trump to feel like he saved face, would save them from so much awkwardness with employees like Stanton.
Well, something must have happened, because this tweet appeared mid-afternoon:
Because of my strong focus on the China Virus, including scheduled meetings on Vaccines, our economy and much else, I won’t be able to be in New York to throw out the opening pitch for the @Yankees on August 15th.
