Biden to host Atlanta Braves at White House to celebrate World Series victory

Sept. 26 (UPI) -- President Joe Biden will welcome the Atlanta Braves to the White House Monday to commemorate the team's 2021 World Series championship.

The president plans to gather with the players and coaches at 11:45 a.m. in the East Room.

The annual White House tradition this year took advantage of the Braves being in town for a three-game series with the Washington Nationals.

The event will also be streamed live on YouTube.

"It'll be a great experience. We're world champions, and we get to go to the White House," Braves manager Brian Snitker told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
