The 307th annual Congressional Geriatric baseball game took place last night at Nats stadium. And for what seems like the 25th year in a row, the Democrats lost.
And how do we know they lost? The House GOP covered the victory via Twitter and 10 exclamation points.
From GOP Conference Twitterberry: Celebrating the GOP’s win!!!!!!!!!!
We have no idea what this victory means – but it’s always good to see old people getting excited about meaningless victories – like passing legislation on renaming the latest post office.
UPDATE: A tipster tells us at last night’s game Rep. Tom Price helped treat a guy who got hit by a bat while in his seat in the stands. It’s unclear as to which athletically prone lawmaker let a bat fly into the stands. Email us a tips@famousdc.com if you know the answer.
UPDATE: Rep. Chip Pickering was the one who let the bat fly.
