In a very 2020 scene that played Wednesday at White House, a relief pitcher who played for the Tampa Bay Rays last season found himself in the middle of yet another spat about people not following rules regarding wearing masks. Sean Gilmartin is a free agent left-hander who last pitched for the Rays, and a former first-round draft pick. He is also the husband of White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany. During Wednesday’s press briefing, Gilmartin stood in the back of the room, not wearing a mask.

Gilmartin was confronted by New York Times photographer Doug Mills who politely pointed out that there’s a rule that masks need to worn at all times in the press areas. A White House staffer with Gilmartin responded incredulously with “Kayleigh’s husband?” Gilmartin and the staff then left the briefing room together, while Mills repeated the rules and said it doesn’t matter who the person is. Gilmartin, you’d figure would be well aware of PPE and mask policies after the MLB season relied heavily on both. However, he didn’t play much for the Rays this year, pitching in just two games with an 8.31 ERA. He wasn’t on Tampa Bay’s postseason roster in its run to the World Series.
