Scalise and four others were wounded when a gunman opened fire on a Republican baseball practice — GOP and Democratic lawmakers face off in a game each year — in nearby Alexandria, Virginia. On Thursday, he headed into the House chamber through the adjacent Statuary Hall, walking past journalists, cameras, congressional staffers and tourists. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., praised Scalise's strength and said, "Today we are Team Scalise." At one point, Scalise was handed a baseball bat that he waved over his head, eliciting additional cheers.
