House Majority Whip Steve Scalise, R-La., who was shot while practicing for the Congressional Baseball Game in June, threw the first pitch before the playoff game between the Washington Nationals and Chicago Cubs at Nationals Park Friday night.
The throw from Scalise, who was wearing a Nationals jersey, was caught by Capitol Police officer David Bailey, who helped take down the gunman and was also injured during the incident.
