To honor U.S. Rep. Steve Scalise, R-Metairie who was severely injured during a shooting on Wednesday, LSU sent baseball hats and t-shirts to Washinton D.C. for members of Congress to wear during Thursday's Congressional Baseball Game for Charity. Per The Advocate:
The New Orleans native and LSU graduate remains in critical condition but has improved.
quote:Scalise was one of six people that were injured after a gunman opened fire Wednesday in Alexandria, Virginia, during a Republicans' early-morning practice.
"I love it, and I know it's what Steve wants," U.S. Rep. Garret Graves, R-Baton Rouge, said in a telephone interview. "The lagniappe is the fact that so many people are calling asking for purple-and-gold garb and wanting to honor Steve and LSU."
While he remains under heavy sedation, Scalise was present in spirit Thursday night, as players donned LSU hats the university sent to the capital in the wake of the shooting. Scalise graduated from LSU in 1989 with a computer science degree and a minor in political science.
