WOODBRIDGE, Va. (AP) President Barack Obama is offering his prediction for the upcoming World Series.

The former Illinois senator is a longtime Chicago White Sox baseball fan. The president congratulated supporters in the Virginia suburbs of Washington the day after the Washington Nationals clinched a playoff berth. The White Sox are currently in first place in the American League Central.

(42,998 posts)1. Nats currently have the best record in baseball
And White Sox aren't that bad either. Who thought the Cards would win last year anyway?

Chicago where he's from and Washington where he lives now. Plus the Nats have lots of fans in VA, a state he very much would like to win.
