YES!!!

 

[Napolitanic Wars]

Is that Barney Frank as the announcer? "He is probably one of the best gynecologists out on the field today."

 

[nano1895]

Supposed only one to hit a home run in a Congressional game.

What. A. Boss.

 

[Bruno]

+ rep! How was there video of this and we've not seen it here? Cool find!

No home run in this game, btw, but some great footage.

 

[GraniteHills]

"The premier gynecologist on the field tonight, Ron Paul."

Awesome. (2:41)

 

[unknown]

The only Rep to ever hit a home run brother.

 

[unknown]

With his helmet off, Rand looks so much like him...

 

[Lavitz]

Wow, this is awesome.

"He's a very very dangerous hitter" lol

 

[ross11988]

I figured footage didn't exist.

Highlights reel needed!

Barney Frank commentating as well? So much win in this video LOL.

Also, there are many a metaphor to be made in this video.

 

[Schiff_FTW]

Where's the home run?? The tape must've cut out.

 

[Bruno]

They were blacking him out even back then!!

 

[cachemaster]

Anyone know where this video was from and if there are any others?

 

[Trigonx]

Where's the home run?? The tape must've cut out.

most likely from another year, hence the mentioning of him being the best hitter on the field. Ron Paul is dangerous

 

[Antwan15]

Great Find!! I had to laugh when the talked about him batting 7th when he was the best player they had!!!! Even then he was getting screwed by the establishment!!! Some things never change!!!

 

[XTreat]

That has to be Barney Frank.

 

[tucker]

Tweeted. This is awesome.

"Ron is one of the best long ball hitters, yet he is 7th in the line-up". Interesting...

It's a shame that Newt Gingrich didn't play.
Probably "wasn't eligible" anyways.
