This week the Congressional Women’s Softball Game is making the leap to the big leagues, as the annual charity event heads to Audi Field for the first time on Wednesday evening.
Members of Congress will once again square off against a team of journalists, appropriately dubbed the “Bad News Babes.”
The beloved tradition began back in 2009, after Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., was treated for breast cancer. She decided a softball game would be a good way to raise awareness about breast cancer in young adults.
