Red Sox Visit Trump at White House During D.C. Trip

Several Boston Red Sox players visited the White House on Thursday during their family road trip to Washington, D.C., and met with former President Donald Trump, an uncommon gesture for a team not holding a championship title. Notable attendees included Justin Wilson, Romy Gonzalez, and Garrett Whitlock, while manager Alex Cora and previous World Series team members were absent. The visit, documented in a video shared by Trump's communications advisor, led to confusion and debate among fans on social media. Team representatives emphasized that the stop was a recreational tour, not a celebration of any championship. The Red Sox are currently fourth in the American League East and are preparing for a series against the Nationals. The visit comes as the team seeks to improve its standing in the division.
