Yesterday afternoon the President and First Lady welcomed the St. Louis Cardinals, winners of the 2011 baseball World Series, to congratulate them on their victory and honor their commitment to the community and to military families.
The White House also welcomed Hannah Sperry, daughter of Marine Lance Corporal James Sperry. Last October, the Sperrys joined the First Lady and Dr. Jill Biden on the field for the national anthem during Game One of the World Series as part of the Joining Forces initiative.
