Mookie Betts possibly not participating in Dodgers White House visit
Briefly

The Los Angeles Dodgers accepted an invitation from President Trump to celebrate their 2024 World Series victory at the White House. They last visited in 2021 under President Biden, with full player participation. Historically, during Trump's first term, many championship teams declined invitations due to limited player attendance. Star player Mookie Betts is currently undecided about joining the visit. The Dodgers' trip marks the first championship celebration in Trump's second term, continuing a tradition that began with the 1981 team meeting President Reagan.
