Democratic senate candidate
Jeff Merkley visited the Warm Springs Reservation in Oregon on Sunday but didn't know the identify of the community's biggest celebrity, OPB News reported.
“Do you know who Jacoby Ellsbury is?" asked
Warm Springs Radio KWSO.
"I don't," Merkley responded. KWSO laughed, OPB News reported.
Ellsbury, a member of the
Navajo Nation, grew up on the reservation and plays for the
Boston Red Sox.
