Democratic Rep. Linda Sanchez is drawing some high heat for flashing a crude hand gesture at her Republican colleagues during Thursday night’s Congressional Baseball Game — giving the GOP dugout the middle finger after she was pulled for a pinch-runner.
The Republican team was leading 5-0 in the bottom of the sixth inning when Sanchez (D-Calif.) drew a leadoff walk. As she hustled back to the Democrats’ dugout on the third-base line at Nationals Park, the lawmaker turned her head toward the GOP bench on the first-base side, then raised her left hand and made the offensive gesture without breaking stride.
It’s unclear if something was said to Sanchez that prompted her to flip Republicans the bird. Her office did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
