The Atlanta Braves were at the White House Monday as President Joe Biden honored the club for their 2021 World Series victory.

The visit came as this year’s regular season winds down.

With Braves players, coaches and their manager looking on, Biden recounted the team’s improbable run last year: sneaking into the playoffs before beating the Brewers and Dodgers to advance to the World Series.
