Jessie Helms and Bono is another relationship that is one of those odd couples that you can never predict until it happens.

Question: I see they play the game at a big league ballpark, but they've been practicing on a little league field. Do they actually play on a big league sized diamond?
Not many guys that age can make the required throws from short stop, third base, etc...last time I got on a full sized diamond, the dimensions shocked me a bit.
My dad umpires this game every year. We used to go with him as kids, although I haven't been in quite awhile, but yes they play on the full size field. My dad could rattle off the details about when and where but there are apparently several congressmen who played collegiate or professional baseball. If you scroll down a little on this page there's a video from last year. Skip ahead to about 1:20 to see some actual game action.
