@prezpeene Read through all the tweets, he got included in the back end of the bullpen, his last name was too long for the initial final tweet. And we figured out the Dottie/Kit thing, the younger sister in the rotation and Dottie as Crash's backup. — PolitiTweet.org

I forgot, in my All-Hollywood-Baseball team, to name a manager. I'm a sucker for Morris Buttermaker. Bu it's gotta be Pop Fisher of the Knights. Best manager in baseball. He can have Red, from the Knights, and Larry Hocket of the D. Bulls, as bench coaches. — PolitiTweet.org

@SethHanlon Eddie was a cheater, plain and simple. I know, I know the owners were brutal and all that. But Eddie cheated. He's off my team -- no one ever proved Joe threw a thing. And yes, Nuke probably gets the 4th or 5th, especially if Amanda can't come back from Tommy John. — PolitiTweet.org

Per @jenhab notation, Kit Hinson is the pitcher. Her sister, Dottie, will back up Crash at catcher. — PolitiTweet.org

@jenhab Oh my, thanks for this. I mixed up sisters! As the youngest of 9 kids, I should know not to mix up siblings. — PolitiTweet.org

@cbrentcolburn I specifically left Goodman's portrayal of Babe off my team. I just thought he was terrible. I was tempted to include the real Babe, since he played himself in "Pride of the Yankees", but that felt like cheating. — PolitiTweet.org

@hodge see the next tweet, of course Wild Thing is the closer! — PolitiTweet.org

@JNicholsonInDC @RadioFreeTom @dick_nixon yep, Henry would be in the bullpen. His name was too long for the tweet. — PolitiTweet.org

@BurgosGOP As Crash said himself, "I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing astro turf and the designated hitter." — PolitiTweet.org

I can't think of any great 2nd basemen(or women) in a baseball movie. Also, Tanner Boyle is going to get suspended a lot, so I need another SS or two. And, like Shoeless Joe, Smokin' Joe Wood can only start home games in Iowa. I need more depth in my rotation. Ideas? — PolitiTweet.org

Starting pitchers: Amanda Whurlitzer of the Bears Smokin' Joe Wood, Black Sox (Field of ...) Billy Chapel, Detroit Tigers (For the Love of the Game) Dottie Hinson, Rockingham Peaches (League of Their Own) Relievers: LOOGY: Jim Morris, Devil Rays (Rookie) Closer: Vaughn, Indians. — PolitiTweet.org

LF: Shoeless Joe Jackson**, Black Sox (Field of Dreams) CF: Willie Mays Hays, Cleveland Indians (Major League) RF: Roy Hobbs, New York Knights (Natural) ** Jackson can literally only play home games in Iowa, can't travel. So Kelly Leak of the Bears plays road games. — PolitiTweet.org

Catcher: Crash Davis, Durham Bulls (Bull Durham) 1B: Lou Gehrig, NYY (Pride of Yankees) 2B: ???? SS: Tanner Boyle, Chico's Bail Bonds Bears (Bad News) 3B: Buck Weaver, "Black Sox" (Eight Men Out), splitting time with Doris Murphy of Rockingham Peaches — PolitiTweet.org

With no real baseball, I consulted some friends to create an all-time movie baseball team, position by position. I've got 1 or 2 holes, hoping others can fill in, feel free to chime in with your arguments. Here's the lineup, with infield 1st, then outfield, then pitchers: — PolitiTweet.org

In a dream last night, someone asked why I kept covering Congress. Like so much of life now, I had no answer. Tonight @ChadPergram nailed it: "Congress has been the best reporting beat around, not just in Washington, but in all of journalism." Read this. https://t.co/9jl6vEcjaU — PolitiTweet.org

@StuPolitics Easing into the week, Stu? I’d have suspected something stronger given how you feel about these briefings. — PolitiTweet.org

I really hope that the R&A is wrong here and that they're just being too pessimistic in canceling The Open: https://t.co/u5tYOhLkwz — PolitiTweet.org

@wexler @dcbigjohn Tommy Callahan Jr. voted for Perot in '96, sat out the '00 election, voted Bush in '04, then Obama in '08, probably sat out '12 and then voted for Trump in '16. But Tommy has long supported Marcy Kaptur without hesitation and even donated to Sherrod's 2018 re-elect. — PolitiTweet.org

PSA: Tommy Boy, released 25 years ago this past week, is on Comedy Central. It actually aged quite well, and is now a really great allegory of the US manufacturing sector. — PolitiTweet.org

@DougHeye @benpershing 2 people walking 2 dogs shoulder to shoulder can also create bad distancing for everyone. Some folks - walkers, runners, bikers, dog walkers - need to learn the I-formation. One person walking/riding/running behind the other. — PolitiTweet.org

@benpershing The riverfront walkway is about 20 feet wide down here in Navy Yard. We’ve an informal rule - heading east walk on south side, heading west walk on north side. Spacing is great. Except a few runners just barrel away without much sense of distance & their huffing/sweat spewing. — PolitiTweet.org

RT @Fdr1942: @pkcapitol @HeidiNBC Too many unners are a danger to walkers...they pass with just 2 feet clearance. You're moving faster run… — PolitiTweet.org
