Plot Synopsis

Hosted by Peter Doocy, STRIKE ZONE: THE CONGRESSIONAL BASEBALL SHOOTING is a three-part documentary that chronicles the story of the June 14, 2017 shooting that occurred during a practice session for the annual Congressional baseball game, featuring firsthand accounts from the survivors and first responders. The series details the course of events at Eugene Simpson Park in Alexandria, Virginia nearly seven years ago. During a practice session for the annual Congressional baseball game, James T. Hodgkinson opened fire on the field, shooting almost 70 rounds and critically injuring Congressman Steve Scalise (R-LA) and lobbyist Matt Mika, while striking Capitol Police Special Agent Crystal Griner and Zach Barth, a staffer for Rep. Roger Williams (R-TX). Featuring interviews with Rep. Scalise, Mika, Capitol Hill police officer David Bailey, trauma surgeon Dr. Libby Shroeder, FOX News senior congressional correspondent Chad Pergram and others, Doocy retells the story with eyewitness accounts of the victims and the heroes that day.
