Obama congratulates Farrell: 'I did not anticipate Ortiz batting .700'

Red Sox manager John Farrell has probably received a lot of celebratory phone calls in the past few days, but one from a certain White Sox fan stands out from the rest.

Yup -- President Obama called the World Series-winning skipper to offer a warm congratulations.

And, in case you were wondering, the Commander in Chief was just as amazed by David Ortiz's heroics as the rest of us.
