WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A bitterly fought presidential race in Washington came to a head on Wednesday as Teddy Roosevelt, whose losing streak had sparked an enthusiastic fan base, finally won the crowd-pleasing mascot footrace before baseball fans at Nationals Stadium.
Since 2006, foam mascots rendering the Mount Rushmore presidents have taken to the field in a footrace during the fourth inning of the Washington Nationals home baseball games.
Until his win on Wednesday, Teddy had lost more than 500 times since the Major League baseball team started the races among Roosevelt, Abe Lincoln, George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.
