Video: President Obama attends baseball game in Cuba

Watch President Barack Obama do the wave.

President Barack Obama is in attendance for Tuesday’s exhibition game in Cuba between the country’s national team and the Tampa Bay Rays.

Obama shook the hands of players on both sides, met with former Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter and received Matt Moore’s glove as a gift.

Most importantly, he did the wave—the single most dangerous thing in American baseball.

Well, I guess that was OK. At least he didn’t stand up.

Later, he told ESPN that he’s in favor of speeding up the pace of play in baseball.

Derek Jeter took his seat next inning to talk about content.
