The World Series games are currently tied. The Washington Nationals won the first two games in Texas against the Houston Astros, and the Astros won the second two games in Washington, DC.

Most fans in the stadium booed the president after he was announced, some in the crowd turned their backs and some others chanted “Lock him up” before he left.
