Presidents George H.W. and George W. Bush shared a moment together, and with the rest of America, to throw the first pitch of the night.
Fantastic. And more than a little moving.
The great state of Texas can be proud tonight, as can all Americans. You may note that President Bush (43) wore an Astros jacket, although he was formerly owner of the Rangers. Good for him.
Good for Texas! I don’t have much to add. This was just a really terrific moment.
Well I’ll add one thing, here’s an awesome tweeted chart showing the accuracy of some first pitches.
