Price booed as he throws out first pitch at Nationals game

[kpete]

Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price was booed as he threw out the first pitch at the Washington Nationals Game on Wednesday.

Price was reportedly met with boos and only a few cheers when he took the mound at Nationals Park to toss the ceremonial first pitch, according to multiple people at the ball park.


Price was one of the administration’s public faces in trying to push through the ObamaCare repeal and replace bill, lobbying with lawmakers to get them to agree to the legislation and defending the measure on Sunday morning shows.
Attendees of the baseball game reported the negative reaction to Price’s appearance on social media.

2. Booing politicians is traditional at baseball games.

Only those who have never gone to a game would not know that.
