Talkin' Baseball: Ozzie vs. Rahm
During yesterday's All-Star Game trip, President Obama also sat down with Bob Costas for an interview to air on the MLB Network.
Obama talks about his first time at a Major League Game, as an 11-year-old watching the Royals play in Kansas City. He also jokes about similarities between the Chicago White Sox's manager and his chief of staff.
"We were trying to figure out who curses more, Ozzie Guillen or Rahm Emanuel." He said he thinks Guillen "takes the prize."
Talking about his beloved Sox, Costas asks Obama if he can prove he wasn't on hand for the infamous "Disco Demolition Night."
"Is this Hannity?" Obama jokingly asks of the tough question. He wasn't there, for the record.
Costas also pointed out that Obama's predecessor was a great first-pitch thrower. The president concedes he probably doesn't measure up, but points out that President Bush probably had plenty of practice during his days as owner of the Texas Rangers. But Obama says he has improved at another sport: bowling. He plays "every once and a while" at Camp David, recently posting a score of 161
Per the White House Web site, the interview will air throughout the week on MLB Network.
