Phillies Visit White House, Four Players Injured

WASHINGTON DC - Yesterday the 2008 World Series Champion Philadelphia Phillies met with President Obama to celebrate last year's title.  The celebration was short-lived, however, as four players were injured during the ceremony.

Being quite the he-man athlete himself, Obama greeted second baseman Chase Utley with a firm handshake which, unfortunately, broke three bones in Utley's throwing hand.

Later, in a quick pick-up basketball game, Obama was accused of playing dirty after flying elbows left first baseman Ryan Howard with broken ribs, centerfielder Shane Victorino with a concussion, and designated hitter Greg Dobbs missing several front teeth.

Nevertheless, the Phillies considered their White House visit to have been an extreme honor, and look forward to doing it again next year.
