The New York Yankees are the All American baseball team based in The Bronx. They compete in Major League Baseball American League East division and are known as The Bronx Bombers.
The Bronx Bombers is a nickname used for the New York Yankees. It refers to the team’s ability to produce powerful hits, mainly home runs. Although not official, it is said that the nickname originated in July of 1936 by the New York World-Telegram.
The Yankees managed to lose their second of two season openers. By adding insult to injury, they invited POTUS to throw the first pitch of a future home game, and baseball ⚾️ fans are not too happy with what they’ve seen thus far.

He is the real Bronx Bomber, who may now be wondering if Trump will become infamous by being the first American president to receive a Bronx cheer and be booed inside an empty stadium without any baseball fans in the bleachers. today POTUS balked and said no way. Why? A few days ago he announced his intention to throw the first pitch at the game, perhaps jealous of Dr. Anthony Fauci did at the Washington Nationals’ season opener versus the NY Yankees.
However, in one of his many reversals, Trump claimed that scheduled meetings on COVID-19 vaccines and the economy would prevent him from performing the tradition in mid-August.No explanation of why golf is not included. For the president, this has been a week of retreats, backing down from long-held positions in the face of resistance from fellow Republicans or popular opposition.
He now claims he will throw the first pitch at a Yankees game later on. That means that for the moment, Trump remains the only president since 1910 who has not thrown the first pitch at a Major League Baseball game.
We at #CityImages also wonder if players will take a knee before the game as many have done in the past. Trump told Fox News he hopes no one is kneeling during the anthem when throws out the first pitch.
