"We need sports more than we ever realized," Biden said, celebrating the team's victory and welcoming supporters back to baseball stadiums. "When we go through a crisis very often sports brings us together to heal."
The White House announced Thursday that the team, which is in town for a four-game series against the Washington Nationals, will attend the East Room ceremony. Vice President Kamala Harris, the former California senator, also attended the event.
Both the president and vice president were presented with Dodgers jerseys.
The ceremony marks the latest step in the White House's efforts to return to large in-person events as it seeks to highlight the nation's emergence from the COVID-19 pandemic.
It also marks the return of ceremonies for sports champions at the White House after an inconsistent record of the tradition under the Trump administration.
