Will World Champion Red Sox Visit White House? Alex Cora Says 'We'll Talk About It'


October 29, 2018 at 1:11 am

BOSTON (CBS) – Will the World Series champion Boston Red Sox visit President Donald Trump at the White House? Manager Alex Cora said that decision has not yet been made.

Cora was asked if the team would make the trip if invited during his postgame press conference.“We’ll talk about it later on,” Cora said.

Earlier this fall, Cora was critical of Trump’s comments about Puerto Rico, the native country of the Red Sox manager.

White House visits have been the source of controversy during the Trump presidency. Trump called off the Eagles’ Super Bowl visit when it became evident a small number of players would be attending.
