Object Details

The 2002 Congressional Baseball Game gave the Republican team the second in an eight-game streak of wins. The official program offered not just the usual rosters and scorecards, but also articles on the Boys and Girls Clubs. Since the two parties first faced off in 1909, fundraising was the major focus of the event, benefitting children’s charities for most of its existence.
