The day after President Trump told reporters he plans to attend Game 5 of the World Series, the Washington Nationals announced that celebrity chef Jose Andres will throw the ceremonial first pitch. Some samples:@IvankaTrump can you please talk to @realDonaldTrump about passing immigration reform,and in the meantime not deporting people like her?tks — José Andrés (@chefjoseandres) April 19, 2017The last 25 years! Because we have people in our community that celebrate other festivities like Hanukkah, etc...but I guess you have a problem with others being different than you... https://t.co/7K7nMCDQSW — José Andrés (@chefjoseandres) December 25, 2017Thank you @realDonaldTrump for showing me everyday that we did the right thing pulling out of your hotel...#smartbusinessdecision 😏 — José Andrés (@chefjoseandres) November 29, 2017Andres isn’t all talk. The Nationals lead the Houston Astros 2-0 in the best-of-seven series, so there’s a chance Game 5 might not even happen. That’s the outcome Andres is hoping for — and it has nothing to do with the man in the White House.
