Obama snaps a selfie with David Ortiz



President Barack Obama took a moment out of greeting the Red Sox to the White House on Tuesday to snap a selfie with player David Ortiz.

After Ortiz presented him with a Red Sox jersey emblazoned with 'Obama' and the number 44 on the back, Obama grinned beside the player as he took out a cell phone.

'What an honor! Thanks for the #selfie @BarackObama,' Ortiz tweeted quickly after.


As Obama welcomed the 2013 World Series champions, he praised their triumph on the field while hailing them as a symbol of their city's 'grit and resilience' in the wake of Boston's bombing last year
