The 2013 World Series champion Boston Red Sox visited the White House on Tuesday for the president's customary meeting with teams that win American sports titles. Chris Bosh photobombs aside, these are usually pretty buttoned-down affairs — but the Sox completed their visit in style.
So just how did these Red Sox win the White House? A presidential selfie from none other than David Ortiz and one of the most, um — we'll just go with "patriotic" — suit-jackets we've ever seen.

Let's start with Ortiz. The Boston sports hero is known for coming up huge in the biggest moments — and Tuesday was no exception.
When one finds oneself at the White House presenting a personalized "Obama" jersey to the President of the United States of America, one must nab a selfie with the First Sports Fan. Clearly:
What an honor! Thanks for the #selfie, @BarackObama pic.twitter.com/y5Ww74sEID

Thankfully The Boston Globe was on hand to give us this behind-the-scenes peek at the historic moment for both Major League Baseball and the art of the selfie:

But wait! Ortiz and Obama may not have even created the greatest thing about the Red Sox visit to the White House. Behold the jacket sported by Boston outfielder Johnny Gomes on Tuesday:
