Pelosi Shares Photo of Wrong Black Baseball Player to Honor Willie Mays

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) fouled up an attempt to honor baseball legend Willie Mays on his 90th birthday on Thursday, instead posting a photo of herself with baseball Hall of Famer Willie McCovey.

“Happy 90th Birthday to an all-American icon, Willie Mays,” Pelosi tweeted Thursday. “A trailblazing, record-breaking baseball player, civil rights leader, and champion for youth sports and well-being, Willie Mays is a civic legend and national treasure.” . . .

After the mistake drew attention online, staffers quickly swapped out the photo for one of Pelosi with Mays.
