Before members of Congress head into the final innings of the midterm campaign season, they pulled off another kind of winning campaign Wednesday night.
For the first time since 2015, the lawmakers defeated the press team at the annual Congressional Women’s Softball Game. With a final score of 6-5, it was a back-and-forth defensive battle that ended with a twist.
Rep. Kat Cammack brought it home at the last minute with a bases-loaded walk. The Florida Republican spent much of the night chirping at both officials and the press team, known as the Bad News Babes. But she also took a lap around the field to celebrate the purpose of the game — raising money to fight breast cancer.
