Steuebe faced trouble in the first inning when the Democrats loaded the bases with two outs. But a diving play by Rep. August Pfluger, R-Texas, at third base ended the inning when he leaned out to stop a hard-hit ball from getting out of the infield and then dove onto the base with his mitt to get the out.
Footage of Pfluger's play went viral on social media.
