As a bonus, Congressman Schweikert also threw in Scorpion lollipops if the Diamondbacks somehow fail to clinch the World Series.\n\nThe Diamondbacks and the Rangers face off tonight in Game 1 of the World Series at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. The last time the Diamondbacks made the World Series was in 2001, when they won the best-of-seven playoff over the New York Yankees.\n\n\u201cWith the D-backs on a roll, this friendly wager seemed like a no-brainer,\u201d said Congressman Schweikert. \u201cI feel confident I\u2019ll be enjoying some delicious Texas barbecue after the Snakes come out on top when it\u2019s all said and done. Embrace the Chaos!\u201d\n\n\u201cWith the Texas Rangers\u2019 impressive pitching and hitting, I am all in for a friendly wager,\u201d said Congressman Williams. \u201cI\u2019ll be ready to enjoy those street tacos from Congressman Schweikert when the Rangers take the series in six. It is time to Go and Take It!\u201d\n\nBack to News", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T00:49:26Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://schweikert.house.gov/2023/10/28/schweikert-williams-place-friendly-wager-on-diamondbacks-rangers-world-series/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.6234461218118668, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
