Here’s to Mr. Slap Hitter, .296 OBP, 35 Stolen Base guy.

… at throwing out the ceremonial first pitch at baseball games. In light of opening day, I thought I’d point out that our president does do something well. The former owner of the Texas Rangers and current leader of the Free World (not the 313) has thrown out more ceremonial first pitches for major league [...]
