The San Francisco Giants sent Kensuke Tanaka down to the minors -- immediately after visiting the White House to meet President Barack Obama on Sunday.
The 32-year-old former Nippon Ham Fighters infielder was promoted July 9 and had played in 15 games, batting .267 with zero home runs. He was also being used out of position in left field.
Tanaka was told of his demotion to Triple-A Fresno after having his photo taken with Obama as a member of the World Series champions.

Wilson, 31, had 48 saves in 2010, his best season, then had six saves in the postseason. He was on the disabled list last season, when the Giants won their second championship in three years.
He lives in the Los Angeles area.

Here's an interesting factoid: It was the fourth game this season Darvish reached 14 strikeouts - there are only two other 14-K games in the majors this season. It is the most 14-strikeout games in one season for the Rangers, surpassing Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan's three in 1990.
