The shooting that took place at the congressional baseball game practice would have been a massacre if it were not for Crystal Griner and David Bailey.

Griner and Bailey are on Rep. Steve Scalise’s security detail and went into action when lives were at stake. Both Griner and Bailey are also former agents for Majority Leader Eric Cantor who praised them in an interview with The Daily Beast.

Both agents are recovering in the hospital.
