Trump will welcome the World Series champion Dodgers to the White House
The Dodgers’ visit follows back-to-back championships and comes as Mookie Betts and Kiké Hernández plan to skip the White House event.
- On Thursday, the Los Angeles Dodgers visit the White House to celebrate their second consecutive World Series championship, with President Donald Trump hosting the team in the Rose Garden.
- Tensions surround the visit due to the team's response to federal immigration enforcement in Los Angeles, where the Dodgers previously pledged $1.1 million to support affected families after agents used Dodger Stadium as a staging area.
- Superstars Mookie Betts and Kik Hernández are skipping the event; Betts cites a scheduled day off to be with family, while Hernández remains sidelined for a rehabilitation assignment but has previously stated he would avoid the visit.
- Manager Dave Roberts welcomes the invitation as a traditional honor rather than a political statement, saying he hopes the team earns this annual visit by consistently winning championships.
- Between a series against the Philadelphia Phillies and Friday's opener against the New York Mets in Queens, the Dodgers are using an off-day to attend the White House appearance.
