Wrong. The greatest first pitch ever was by George Bush in New York right after 9/11. The entire nation was watching and he nailed it. It was story book.

President Bush's at Yankee stadium deserves to be on there, probably #1. He went out there amid the most tense times since the Cold War in a FDNY jacket and threw a strike. Perfect baseball moment

Even if you hate George W. Bush. He threw out the greatest ceremonial first pitch of all time. Hands down. Sold out Yankee stadium, right after the 9/11 attacks and threw a strike.

I'm surprised that George W. Bush's ceremonial first pitch at Game 3 of the 2001 World Series wasn't number 1, just weeks after the September 11th attacks. Many touching first pitches, but I dare say Bush's pitch ranks just a bit higher than the "zombie" attack.

pretty much never liked the guy, but George W. Bush throwing that strike at Yankee Stadium after 9/11 in the midst of deafening “USA!” chants was by far the greatest first pitch moment I’ve ever witnessed.... gives me goosebumps every time.

Angels: "Aye Matthew wanna throw first pitch in tomorrow's game?" McConaughey" alright, alright, alriigghhht."
