Rep. Steve Scalise: D.C. Shooting Victim Throws 1st Pitch at Nats Playoff Game
Rep. Steve Scalise D.C. Shooting Victim Throws 1st Pitch ... At Nats Playoff Game
GOP House Whip Steve Scalise just threw out the 1st pitch at Game 1 of Nationals vs. Cubs in D.C. ... just 6 months after being shot and seriously injured at a Congressional baseball game.
With the help of a walker, Steve made it out to the mound and fired a perfect strike to home plate -- garnering a standing O from the crowd.
Pretty amazing considering Scalise was fighting for his life after taking a bullet in the hip back in June.
FYI, Steve returned to Capitol Hill on Sep. 28 after months of rehab -- tweeting, "I'm back."
