. >> jon: jack bergman of michigan was on the field when the shots rang out. he joins us now. congressman bergman, set the scene for us, what did you observe? what happened? >> it was just towards the end of the daily practice. i was next in line to bat standing next to the batting cage when the first shot rang out. the second shot rang out within a couple of seconds. pretty obvious at that point that we had a shooter, so everybody started to scramble and we could tell that it was from somewhere behind the third base dugout. i kicked into marine mode and went to a low crawl, crawl behind the first base dugout along with a couple of others, not knowing how and in which direction the shooter was moving. within a couple of minutes, it appeared that the shooter was trying to work his way down the third base line outside of the fence and towards the backstop. we scrambled then into the first base dugout and at that point, the capital police were engaging him. they engaged him right behind the backstop. there were the true heroes because if they had not been there, this truly could

with me is congressman barry loudermill and jack bergman who were there this morning much appreciate you spending time with us. i talked to a number of people who were there. the first shot people didn't know what it was. they thought a car backfiring, a firework. when did you realize what was happening? >> as soon as the second shot happened. the second was the same as the first. you know the sound of a weapon when you hear it. >> military experience. >> that's right. right then it was real. >> where were you? i understand the shooter was near third base. >> he was behind -- thankfully, he was on the outside of the chain-link fence. >> which was locked. >> behind the third base dugout. i was next to the batting cage. we couldn't see him. after that second shot, several of us standing there began to make a beeline in a low crawl towards behind the dugout on the first base side to stay out of the line of fire. >> congressman, when did you -- where were you? >> i was close to home plate. i had just come in from the batting cages to take some live pitching. i was putting on a batting he
