On March 12, 2018, the Houston Astros paid a visit to the White House to be honored for their 2017 World Series win. Altuve, who was standing in the front row behind then-president Donald Trump, was spotted by the camera with an unflinching facial expression that took social media by storm.
Altuve explained the reasons for his expression in an interview with the Houston Chronicle, saying:
He added:
Donald Trump acknowledged Jose Altuve’s efforts in World Series 2017
In March 2018, Donald Trump addressed Jose Altuve’s performances in the 2017 World Series. Trump began his speech by saying:
As the former president continued his tribute, he brought up Jose’s name.
Next, he turned around and shook hands with Altuve, who was standing just behind him.
The Astros are competing in the World Series this year as well, against the Philadelphia Phillies, and America is waiting with bated breath to find out who will get the ring.
