Republicans Defeat Democrats in Congressional Baseball Game for Fifth Consecutive Year

WASHINGTON, D.C., JUN 11 – The annual charity game raised a record $2.8 million, while Republicans extended their winning streak to five straight years with a 13-2 victory over Democrats.

  • The Republicans defeated the Democrats 13-2 on June 11, 2025, at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C., in the annual Congressional Baseball Game for Charity.
  • The game, which began in 1909, raises funds for local charities and took place amid political tensions after Democrats lost the White House in 2024.
