Dr. Anthony Fauci‘s finally talking about that DISASTER of a first pitch at the Washington Nationals game … and doc’s got EXCUSES!
Sore arm. Poor training. Misjudging the distance.
COME ON FAUCI!!!
The Doc opened up about the debacle on the ESPN Daily podcast — admitting he hadn’t thrown a baseball in decades and wasn’t properly prepared for the honor.
“I had been practicing for 2 days before at a walk down that I thought was 60 feet, but it was really probably 45 feet,” Fauci said.

“I was throwing and throwing and throwing and I got it right but only it was at 45 feet!”
“And I kind of hurt my arm because I haven’t thrown a baseball literally in decades.”
Fauci continued … “So, as I was getting ready to go out on the mound, my arm was killing me — but I said hell, I could suck it up and just throw it the way I had been practicing.”
But, when Fauci got to the mound, the doc says he panicked — “I said, ‘Oh my god, Sean Doolittle looked like he was 200 feet away!”
Fauci says he changed his throwing motion to try and overcompensate for the distance and soreness … but it backfired.
“I wound up and threw it like a bullet, only it just went way off to the left.”
“So it was my bad, all the way.”
Yeah, baseball’s not gonna work out for Fauci. Don’t quit your day job!
