The Rush: Mookie kneels and Fauci goes full 50 Cent in MLB’s delayed 2020 debut

It was Opening Day for MLB...and it was a wild one! The world champion Nationals hosted the Yankees in a stormy D.C., the Giants visited the Dodgers in Los Angeles, Nationals OF Juan Soto tested positive for COVID-19, Dodgers P Clayton Kershaw tweaked his back, Dr. Anthony Fauci threw out the first pitch in DC, prompting President Trump to announce a first pitch of his own and Dodgers OF Mookie Betts was the only player on LA to kneel during the anthem. LeBron James sizzles in Lakers restart debut, the new NHL team in Washington will be called the Seattle Kraken, while the old NFL team in D.C. will be called the Washington Football Team. PLUS: More than half of MLB teams will make the postseason and Mike Tyson can kick your grandfather’s butt.
