 Good morning. I'm Michelle Martin. Excuse me while I brag. Congratulations to the Microphones. That would be NPR's softball team, which won their first ever Metropolitan Media Softball League championship over the weekend, besting rivals such as The Washington Post and CNN. The Microphones started as underdogs, seeded sixth. They lost their opening game, but they kept going and beat top-seeded Bloomberg twice to win the trophy. By the way, the team includes three staffers from, you guessed it, Morning Edition.
