Prez should tell them he’s too busy to participate in such foolishness.

The Orioles should use one of baseball's veteran first pitch throwers.

I can see the Twitter message from Trump already:

"The Orioles suck bigly anyway."

Long tradition, sort of. Most presidents since Harding, have thrown out first pitch on opening day. But Obama only did it once or twice, occasionally someone else does it. Personally, I think while Trump has every right to do it, it is too much of a security risk, in the current political climate. Maybe people are searched before entering a ballgame. I don’t know. But it is a slap in the face for this owner to demand an apology from the POTUS. These hate-filled people need to STOP!

Did Trump ask to throw out the first pitch?

Trump could offer to throw the first pitch . . . at Angelos's head. (Trump was a baseball pitcher at NYMA, as I recall.) If the guy can dodge the pitch, Trump apologizes.

For missing.

...slime ball Peter Angelos...

I have some relatives in the greater Baltimore area that were O's fans since moving there in the 1950s.

It killed them when Angelos took over, and they eventually stopped going to the games.

Hope the team’s ownership looks out into the stands on opening day and only sees one guy in the stands.

"Maybe we ought to do one of those waves."

I have been a long time supporter - and for years (when I lived in Balt.) a season ticket holder.

But now . . . . what are they thinking???

You’re right.

If you’ve broken the law, what difference is it what your skin color is?

Silly isn’t it.

Trump can throw out the first pitch for the Yankees. You know...a REALLY team.

Yes lots of fans are from outside of the DC-Baltimore pit, such as PA. Not good warm fuzzies for gun clingers from PA...

Make him document, in context, the statements he is referring too. I haven’t the foggiest.

Trump:" John here's your apology. I'm sorry...you're such a loser".
