I didn't know this was a thing. First game was in 1909, but apparently has been a yearly event since the 1960s

This year, there were protests. Some about Gaza, some about climate change

Protesters run on the field at Congressional Baseball Game

Climate Defiance claimed credit for the protest against fossil fuels, which saw several people tackled and handcuffed by Capitol Police.
