Former president Donald Trump to attend World Series Game 4, but MLB refutes statement league invited him

Former president Donald Trump will attend Game 4 of the World Series between the Atlanta Braves and Houston Astros on Saturday night at Truist Park, according to a report by Bob Nightengale of USA Today.

According to Braves CEO Terry McGuirk, Trump had surprised Major League Baseball officials by calling and telling them that he wanted to come to the game. Trump will not watch the game with MLB or Braves officials, and will instead watch from his own suite.

McGuirk stated that the New York billionaire-turned 45th President of the United States was very much welcome at the ballpark.

"We are apolitical,'' McGuirk said. "We're open to anyone coming. It's great that he wants to come to our game.''

In a message sent to his mailing list on Saturday afternoon, Trump announced his intentions to attend the game, while thanking MLB commissioner Rob Manfred and New York Yankees president Randy Levine for inviting him. However, Major League baseball officials refuted to Yahoo Sports that they had invited Trump, instead stating that Trump had requested to attend.

Trump's statement reads:

Fauxcy is not going to shank the first pitch?

Maybe Trump could pitch Fauci over Home Plate.

Twould be a mistake for the Bidenoids if he was on the
national feed and a let’s go brandon
Chant started...or a f√¢k you joe Biden?


I'm thinking the 7th Inning Stretch after "Take Me Out to the Ballgame". You already have everyone singing. Or, for those with loud voices who are well positioned:

Announcer: We have runners on the corners with two outs ... the Astros are down 1, and the clean-up hitter has three balls and two strikes ... a full count. The pitcher is in his windup ..."

Loud voice(s) from stadium: LET'S GO BRANDON!

Batter is cracking up, and lets strike 3 go by as he only looks on, and that retires the side.

Thank you to the Commissioner of Baseball Rob Manfred, and Randy Levine of the great New York Yankees, for the invite.

Trump would not have said that if they did not invite him. Someone is lying, and it isn't Trump.

With all the nasty voting obstruction and outright racism in Georgia and Texas, why wasn’t the World Series cancelled? MLB needs to be consistent.

At least they should have invited two runners-up which aren’t from GA and TX to the World Series.

Meanwhile Joe Biden can’t even think about going near a stadium. He’s the resident of the white house but scared to go to any stadium in this country. 81M my a$$

“It’s great that he wants to come to our game.’’

Freak. McGuirk is not the welcome wagon. Trump is the President and where he goes is non of McGuirk’s business.

They made a statement made out of fear. OUT OF FEAR of retribution by the lefties. That is the lead of this story.

Manspread pulled the ASG from Atlanta. I’m laughing that now he has to watch the Braves in the WS, whilst the fans do the chop and warcry. And now PDJT shows up? LOL. Manspread’s head will probably explode tonight.

By not picking a side; they picked a side by denying they invited the true President.

Pathetic.

Instead of the standard chop, chant F the President. President F you! Of course, this is referring to Biden. Opponents of Florida State often chant F the Seminoles.

I used to be a big baseball fan.

Then MLB went woke.

I hope they go broke.
