We hear all the time that “elections have consequences.” Well, we weren’t really expecting that Republican majorities would affect tonight’s Congressional baseball game but apparently, we’re wrong:
Chris Murphy managing expectations about tonight's Congressional baseball game to @jordanjfrasier : "The Democrats ranks have been thinned over the years so we still have a couple of really good players. But we have half as many as the Repubs do so they can keep their legs fresh"

LOL!
One of the GOP’s players was shot last year and you don’t hear him whining like Sen. Murphy:

And if the teams aren’t fair, Dems can have Sen. Jeff Flake who really doesn’t want to be on the GOP team anyway:
