President was received by a zealous crowd, who welcomed him with cheers with few boos scattered in. He sported khakis, a Nationals jacket and a Chicago White Sox, his favorite team. Obama commenting on his pitch a little later said: “I was a little disappointed with the pitch, … It was high and outside. I was intentionally walking the guy. Fortunately, Zimmerman has a tall reach.”
Obama  has strong basketball skills but have found pitching tough. He once said that baseball does not come naturally to him. Twitter was soon flooded by the critical as well as generous review. But he told his audience that he could have come around if he had more time: ”If I had a whole inning, I’m telling you, I would have cleaned up,”.
