The claim made yesterday by Jean Alain Rodriguez, the Attorney General in the Dominican Republic, that David Ortiz was shot because the gunman confused him with Sixto David Fernández, who was sitting at the same table, is so laughable, according to WEEI's Alex Reimer, that "Sarah Sanders would've been proud of his performance".
Ortiz and Fernandez look nothing alike. It doesn't matter if both men may have been wearing white pants June 9, as police say. This would be one mystifying case of mistaken identity.
In fact, only three days ago, DR authorities called the possibility of Ortiz being mistaken for someone else "absurd".
