On the recordJune 14, 2013
I have my 7-year-old son, Jack, with me this week. As we walked on the floor, he asked me, ``Daddy, why is that trophy on that desk?'' And I said, ``Well, son, they won the game last night.'' So I rise in reluctant recognition of the fact that last night, at Nationals Park, the Democrats squeaked out a 22-0 victory over the stalwart Republican team. Our MVP is Senator Jeff Flake from Arizona, who was a Member of this body until last year. We had a number of other Members who played very well--John Shimkus, Bill Johnson, Mike Conaway, Rodney Davis, Ron DeSantis, and the list goes on and on. The fact remains that the Democrats won, and they are entitled to the trophy. Our hats are off to you. With that, I yield to my good friend, the manager from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Mr. Mike Doyle.
