President Barack Obama plans to throw out the ceremonial first pitch before the All-Star game at Busch Stadium in St. Louis on July 14.
The White House said Tuesday that Major League Baseball’s focus on community service matches with Obama’s service initiative this summer, known as United We Serve.
“The central theme of the 2009 All-Star game is community service, celebrating the extraordinary work being done by ordinary people,” baseball commissioner Bud Selig said. “We are thrilled that we can come together with President Obama, who has encouraged a renewed spirit of national service, and illustrate a call to action in our communities. President Obama will continue a great tradition that joins our nation’s leader and the national pastime.”

Odd... always pegged O as more of the catcher type
Based on his bowling game and writing style, this should be hilarious.
This president stuff is only a part time job anyway. He has many more important things to do.
Puke city
The Great Amnerican Pastime is visited by the man who is doing more than anyone in history to destroy America; meanwhile, Bud Selig, sensing no irony, proves he can get down on his knees and kiss @ss with the best of them.
I wont be there so I’ll say it here....BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Also I’ll add. Yet another reason to hate baseball.
I could see Obie standing next to a pitching machine as it zinged one in then walking off the mound waving his arms as though he had thown it himself. :)
Oh great, another Chris Matthews knee jerk and leg tingling moment. No thanks.

Wow the press went gaga over killing a fly. Can you imagine the accolades he’ll get if the ball even goes in the general direction of home plate?
THis marxist crypto-muslim is going to get booed louder than Nicolea Ceausescu on the eve of the Romanian revolution.
He's going to politicize Baseball now, can't let well enough alone,always pushing.
This is going way too far, and he and his fellow socialist crooks will pay a heavy price.
“THEY” are readying the excuses now for anything but a strike.
But in “THEIR” most astute reasoning the ‘peoples’ (WE) will be told it was a perfect pitch that ‘stung’ the catcher’s hand.—not matter where it lands.
Yet another milestone for URKEL.
All this will be done with awe, reverence and a straight face.
You got it.
I’m hoping the whole place loudly boo his sorry ass.
Obama to throw out first pitch at All-Star game
Obama will ruin baseball.
Aggressive narcissism
1. Glibness/superficial charm
2. Grandiose sense of self-worth
3. Pathological lying
4. Cunning/manipulative
5. Lack of remorse or guilt
6. Emotionally shallow
7. Callous/lack of empathy
8. Failure to accept responsibility for own actions
My thoughts too. Considering (1) how much AS tickets cost, (2) a "well to do" audience (3) smack in the middle of America.
This just might be an appearance that the punk president regrets.
