This softball team put together a stellar mid-game interpretation of the #MannequinChallenge

Perhaps you're familiar with the #MannequinChallenge, the mysterious new phenomenon taking social media by storm.

Impressive dedication, incorporating not just the players but even an umpire and some fans in the stands. Sure, it's the offseason, but it can only be a matter of time before this goes all the way to MLB -- maybe the Nationals can get involved, as part of Bryce Harper's continuing meme education.
