Security officials in Boston on Wednesday were preparing for an extraordinary day of World Series baseball and politics in which a presidential visit may be the least disruptive event.
The Red Sox were hosting the St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday night with a chance to win their third World Series in less than a decade and first at home since 1918. Hours earlier, President Obama was scheduled to deliver a talk on his embattled health care reform.
Obama is expected to be out of town an hour before the game begins, and officials say they're prepared for any postgame celebration later in the evening if the Red Sox win.
