    Probably both are true.

    Trump made the tweet. Surprised the Yankees. They reached out, as the President is a big Trump fan, and confirmed a date.

    The tweet doesn't say the report is wrong, simply that the date is on.

    No, it’s just another one of trump’s lies.
    He’s never shown any interest in throwing out the first pitch until MLB asked Dr Fauci and then he couldn’t stand it, thus his latest brain fart.
    Enjoy making excuses for this latest bit of fluff from your orange dotard for the next week.

    If he had been asked about it by reporters then it could be more believable. But the timing of his unprompted announcement - just an hour before Fauci was to toss out the first pitch - shows his fragile ego. Just more childish games.

    Yes because if the NY Times said someone unknown said something its gospel.

    Seems like his buddy Levine would come to his defense then.

    Why should he when one of the reporters covering the Yankees confirmed it already?

    I'm waiting to hear from the Yankees President.

    He confirmed 8/15?

    Strange you did not wait to hear for the NY Times source name to be discussed.. Why is that.

    Um.. Yes as i have posted twice now....
    FFS.

    Of course with what is going on with the Marlins and now the Phillies and Yankees due to a few players testing positive you cant call any game on the schedule ironclad.

    This has nothing to do with NYT. I'm talking about Trump mentioning it one hour before Fauci's pitch. He wasn't asked about it, he just announced it.

    Actually if it was a normall season with fans packed in like sardines the Trump would have been chomping at the bit by first day of print training to throw out the first pitch.
