Texas Rangers manager Bruce Bochy hoists the World Series trophy at Chase Field in Phoenix, Nov. 1, 2023. The Rangers defeated the Arizona Diamondbacks, 4-1. After several on-again, off-again attempts to set up a visit for the defending World Champions fell through, President Joe Biden’s schedule and the Rangers’ cleared up enough for a celebration before the former leaves the White House and before the Rangers are potentially dethroned. According to a person familiar with the Rangers plans, the Rangers’ delegation is expected to visit the White House on Thursday’s off day ahead of a trip to New York and Boston.
Biden welcomed the Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs to the White House on May 31, when he was still running for re-election. The Rangers had hoped to visit in mid-May ahead of a trip to Philadelphia, but that fell victim to scheduling conflicts.The Rangers finish a homestand against Houston on Wednesday afternoon and then will board their charter for Washington.
While the Rangers have never made a White House visit as world champions, a delegation of players and executives did tour the grounds and meet with President George W. Bush during the final stages of his second term.The Rangers will finally join the club of local teams to make a trip to the White House and will be the city’s first visitor since the Dallas Mavericks paid Barack Obama a visit in January of 2012.
