Video of the New York Yankees at the White House

Here is a video of the Yankees meeting President Barack Obama at the White House in front of an absolutely packed house yesterday. The video starts with a speech from Obama, in which he said nothing but great things about the team.

The Yankees manager Joe Girardi then presented Obama with a signed no. 27 jersey.

They didn’t give him no. 44 because it is retired in honor of Reggie Jackson. Obama shook hands with everyone, and they posed for a group photo.

A photo of the event is also posted here .
