Possibly the most meaningful first pitch in history. That pitch represented the mindset Americans would have moving forward, and the fact he nailed it was important to people, whether or not you think it should have. Unbelievably clutch pitch.
jhaz89 you realize this asshole bush was a big fat stupid liar in the face of the American people right? How can you love a president who lied to you straight in the face about multiple issues, and didn't even give a fuck when he was an accomplice if not the head of the undercover job that led to the deaths of over 3,000 American civilians just so we could go into Afghanistan, and lose even more American lives? You make me sick.
+DonCorleone87 Exactly. From his powerful walk towards the mound to him standing confidently on the mound to the perfect first strike. Epic moment, still brings chills.
bearone7777 at the time he was 55. Bush and Sylvester Stallone were both born the same day -- July 6, 1946. He was only 6 weeks older than Clinton; August 19, 1946.
They also had a bald eagle that was trained to fly from the upper stands to it's trainer on the field that night. It was an incredible way to start the game.
Also bare in mind this was really soon after 9/11, so it's not only a really inspiring amount of patriotism, but it's also directly after and in opposition of the biggest terrorist attack in history, in the same city it took place in. Imagine seeing him walk out there, unafraid, especially if you'd lost people in the attacks.
I was not a fan of him nor of his presidency. But he freaking crushed this moment. Walked to the mound. Thumbs up. Perfect strike. Walked off. Badass...
Cry everytime I watch this. Bush wasn't the best president but he had a very strong connection with the people of the country. I was proud to be an American when Bush was president.
I don't know if you are an Obama supporter or Republican but at least Bush can name some Rangers when Obama couldn't. Easy video to find. Just search Obama first pitch knows no players
+Blake X Bush was responsible for knowing about Osama throughout the 90s and allowing the USS Cole bombing attacks to happen? Oh what that was Clinton LOL
ELZOOL12 Yes, I have. Watch the rest of this documentary to understand why Jeter is called “Mr. October”. He will forever be thought of as a source of healing post 9/11. He attended countless memorial services and comforted many fans who lost loved ones in the Towers.
I am from Canada and I have never even visited the United States but I couldn't help but feel patriotic with the American people while I was watching this.
yes but Canadians don't show the true patriotism like americans. for example homes in the states with flags are numerous yet virtually non existant in canada
"I didn't vote for him but at that point, my personal feelings about him as a politician were gone. I watched him and he was my representative... I had never felt that way before." David Fisher articulates that tremendous feeling of patriotism and unity as a country we were experiencing in the days and weeks following 9/11 so perfectly, beautifully. Didn't matter which side of the aisle you were on, we all stood as one together, as Americans together. 15 years on and this still chokes me up.
+Jcurvs99 lets not get carried away here. it was a great and stirring moment but as human nature dictates, it was bound to be short lived. just like when someone we know dies young/suddenly and we vow to appreciate the simple things in life we ordinarily take for granted and then inevitably go back to our daily routines. It's neither good or bad, just the way we're programmed. Compared to most places in the world, we have a pretty good life here in the US, regardless of your economic or social status. we need not concern ourselves with the daily worry of putting food in our bellies or finding clean drinking water. our prosperity allows us to squabble over things like healthcare costs, sports and pop culture and in a certain way, that's actually a privilege most people from many other countries would die for. imagine being a poor villager in Afghanistan and every day you have to worry whether some Taliban animal is going to kill ur children, rape ur wife or appropriate ur home and possessions? complain to that guy about the failings of Obamacare and see how much sympathy you get.
We supported the president after 9/11. I can't remember how long before the Iraq war started or if it was when the war started that it shifted to the majority of people hating him.
Why Bless a crime family and a man known for screwing under-aged children and attending satanic kaballistic rituals despite his low IQ? I wouldn't call that classy and I would certainly not call him Godly. I would call that and his ilk reprobate responsible for multiple deaths and bloodshed both domestic and foreign. It's almost like Americans worship the flag and not the Almighty at times. Politics are not God, and never should be and this leader is far from Godly.
George W. Bush was the last president we were united under. It went away when the media moved on to instigating domestic conflicts again but it was beautiful while it lasted. I hope it doesn't take another disaster to unite us again.
That’s how history works. It always takes a disaster. To unite against an enemy, real or contrived, there will always be a disaster. Whether it’s the USS Maine or Pearl Harbor or the Lusitania or the Tonkin Gulf “incident”, there always must be a problem in order for those in charge to propose their solution
Your so right I hate saying it but all that after 9/11 & the country coming together is now gone. I'm not making it about Trump if you like him fine if not ok. However people who didn't vote for him & are outraged he's President need to move on. Kaepernick his whole issue has damaged the country cause people now kneel during the Anthem.
You can't beat our way of life, you can't beat our patriotism, you can't beat us. Period. We are Americans, when bush stood on that mound, he was a wall. He was the symbol of our patriotism. No fear, no surrender.
That was the greatest and most important pitch in Major League baseball history... My only wish is that we would have kept our word when we all said "WE WILL NEVER FORGET" this country is more divided than ever... I pray that it doesn't take another 9/11 to put us back together like we were then
Isn't it amazing that just a few years ago this country seemed so united and patriotic. We stood up and saluted the flag and prayed together as a beautiful and grand nation. Now we are fighting each other over the dumbest idiologies, flushing morals down the toilet and demanding history erased. Some day, this country will stand tall yet again, stand strong and stand as the United States of America.
+John Greeneyes The very day that 9/11 happened, there were Americans complaining that New Yorkers shouldn't have died, it was people living in the Red States that should have died. By 9/12 an anti-war movement had crystalized against responding to the attacks. By April of the following year, nearly half of all New York City residents and over half of self described liberals had convinced themselves that the attacks were carried out by Americans. I know about the myth that we are so united and patriotic, but its just a myth. It was as you say something that may have seemed to be, but never was real. If it was ever real, show me the evidence of those feelings actually acted on. What really happened is that those inclined to prayer or saluting flags did so, and those who hated those people remained firm in that hatred. For a moment, a few people might have assumed the hate was going to stop, but that was hope and not based on evidence.
+Matthew Reynolds 1/2 of all NYC residents were convinced the attacks were carried out by Americans?? that might be the most irresponsibly made up statistic I've ever seen used. those of us who live and work here have no doubts about who carried out those attacks and its personally offensive to see you mischaracterize us that way.
I am *NOT* at all a fan of this man's political views or decisions, but it's videos like this that are great reminders that he is human like the rest of us. And that he can throw a baseball better than Michael Jordan, who, lest we forget, _actually played Major League Baseball..._
As a Yankees fan and someone who is not a Bush fan, I feel that, while it was disappointing NYY lost that series, this was more special and more important. It was something that city, and this country NEEDED to see.
Probably one of the greatest leaders in the history! To lead us through such a tough time it takes not only a great leader, but an outstanding American!
I'm Canadian and this moment is the type of thing I admire most about the USA and that is the ability to come through adversity during the most difficult times and be unified as one, and it goes right back to your national anthem written during the war of 1812 when the British had you on the ropes: and the rockets red glare the bombs bursting in air, gave proof through the night that our flag was still there, and o does that star spangled banner yet wave, O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
all the issues we have today was created by bush. He lost thousands of jobs and crashed the economy. Obama wasn't great but he was cleaning up his mess. Obama created back all the jobs bush lost and even more jobs. And even though all people say now a days is that the economy is shit, but its the best it has been since the great depression
Noah Cho Actually, that is incorrect. In Clintons last year of Presidency, the economy began to struggle. And the economy was destroyed by banks lending mortgages to people they knew could not pay. And if you took the time to study, you will see what political party was forcing these loans and what party was against it. Bush said on multiple occasions that this housing boom was going to be the downfall of our economy.
This is why I Love America. ... We can talk crap about each other pretend from one moment to the next to hate each other but Lord have Mercey cuase you will never see a group of people Unite faster if an outsider messes with one of ours.... Deep down inside we are all Red White & Blue and God Bless our only True Friends Canada, Britain & Australia

Congrats Sheha, you have somehow managed to be more annoying and delusional than the libtards themselves. Getting mad at the president for throwing a stirke? Get a fucking grip.
I’m was pretty impressed at that really nice pitch he threw. Perfect strike. So many people who throw out the first pitch can’t even reach the plate. Really awesome moment for the country.
Bob Judd President Bush is a blessing and beats the hell out of the current asshole-in-chief, obama. Bush was the last real President this country had. At least Bush loves this country and not tearing it down like obama currently is.
Countryboy830 While I don't care too much for Obama, he's about a THOUSAND times the president that BUSH could have ever dreamt of being. All we have to do is rewind history to the day he left office after he bailed out wall street and foolish car companies while bankrupting the entire rest of the nation -- historians don't forget, idiots like YOU do.
MICAIAH PATRIOT I'm a Libertarian, but identify as a Libertine. I am a SUPER LIBERAL and I think Obama is a middle-of-the-road conservative. He's FAR too conservative for my taste. So go fuck yourself and if you're an idiot, reply.
Astounding! The BEST video I’ve seen on TH-cam in quite some time. It reminds me of what a hellish presidency George W. Bush was handed by you know who. The guy had to really step up on 9/11 and STEP UP HE DID! This video is a testament to how he provided leadership during truly desperate times. America has come a long way in 17 years. We are THE BEST so long as we STAY AWAKE!
I was at this game. The security outside getting in was crazy. The roof tops were covered with snipers and rifles. Not a GWB fan but this was a very cool moment to attend YS.
At the time, I wasn't a fan of GWB...but I remember watching this and thinking wow, this guy has balls and clearly loves this country. I gained a lot of respect for him that night.
Back in the day when we had a REAL president and not one who bowed down to terrorists or tried to disarm his own people. G. W. Bush made me proud to be an American.
Why did this video warm my heart so much? Maybe it was when I saw the part when those teenagers were cheering on their country... I wish it was like that now :(
The good old days, when the US had a President who loved and was proud of the country and could throw a baseball like a man. Didn't agree with everything he did, very few people ever do. But he is a class act. I can't remember a single time he's ever trash talked our current POTUS. Too bad the same can't be said about "It's not my fault" Obama.
The Man threw out the first ball,because HE HAD BALLS,He helped AMERICA get through one of our greatest tragedies. We are the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! We need to get back to what we are! Not with what we have now though. But AMERICA can do it!
Not an American and certainly not a fan of baseball, but I can't help but get emotional after watching this vid.. This was a great moment, and considering the pressure and everything that was riding on that pitch, that was one heck of a throw
Watching this brought tears to my eyes remembering when we were a proud and strong country, with a leader who loved this country and put her first instead of his own agenda.
It was such an important moment.. A lot of us, myself included, were unsure and worried about what was next.. And not necessarily another attack, but our way of life.. I’m usually a substance over style, guy, but sometimes style means everything..

I'm not american, but I'm astonished of the level of patriotism and love for a country in one single pitch. This is absolutely awesome.
They also had a bald eagle that was trained to fly from the upper stands to it's trainer on the field that night. It was an incredible way to start the game.
Sounds like you would make a GREAT American in my opinion

Cry everytime I watch this. Bush wasn't the best president but he had a very strong connection with the people of the country. I was proud to be an American when Bush was president.
couldn't have said it better.
He loves America!!!!!!!
I think it was his finest moment.
dalew101 I’m always proud to be an American. W was good.
I'm Canadian and must admit I shed a tear while watching this!! My, how things have changed...
whether you like his politics or not, you cant deny that hes a true class act, and a gentleman.
fact!!!!
Young Mulla but he stepped on the line...
Steve Sanders Wasn't he in the National Guard?
I don't know if you are an Obama supporter or Republican but at least Bush can name some Rangers when Obama couldn't. Easy video to find. Just search Obama first pitch knows no players
Agreed. He was not the best president, but he was a good man and clearly cared about and loved his country.
I was a mile away, at my mother's home from Yankee Stadium, when I saw this on TV, and I could hear the crowd that night..... Speechless........
could you really? so cool. wish i were there
People will say that he wasn't the best president.. But he damn sure loved his country more than anything.
he loved America so much he allowed 9/11 to happen in the first place but focus on the pitch
+Blake X Bush was responsible for knowing about Osama throughout the 90s and allowing the USS Cole bombing attacks to happen? Oh what that was Clinton LOL
Tony Knickerbockers George H knew about Osama too
Bush did 9/11. 9/11 was a cover story for to mislead the public into supporting the invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan.
Video Edits This is a great conspiracy theory.
This was more then a first pitch. This meant a whole lot and I wish we could get back to this again
best bush moment ever.....never liked his politics, but he was a good guy
i wish more people were level and reasonable enough to feel like this. :|
yep. totally agree
Yeah, he's like Jimmy Carter. He meant well but he wasn't a great president.
I never realized how similar Carter and Bush are in that regard, huh
Stefano C yes good guy who murdered tons of people
"Don't bounce it, they'll boo ya" hahaha Derek Jeter fucking rules

ELZOOL12 Yes, I have. Watch the rest of this documentary to understand why Jeter is called “Mr. October”. He will forever be thought of as a source of healing post 9/11. He attended countless memorial services and comforted many fans who lost loved ones in the Towers.
I am from Canada and I have never even visited the United States but I couldn't help but feel patriotic with the American people while I was watching this.
ontariobuds Just saw your comment and I want to say PERSONALLY THANK YOU!!
I agree
We all love Canada too. I was born in Colorado but every hockey game I go to I still show the same respect to O Canada as I do the National Anthem
yes but Canadians don't show the true patriotism like americans. for example homes in the states with flags are numerous yet virtually non existant in canada

And then with that feeling of pride in america decided to flush all are freedoms right down the toilet.
Steps up and nails a strike like a boss!
Absolute DIME lol
This is still one of the most meaningful first pitch in the history of baseball
back when Americans were United and Proud.... We had a President that not only Lead us but Loved us and was one of us

Remember when we were all standing together to fight the same foe, instead of tearing each other apart like nowadays.

It's really sad, isn't it?

Sad, very sad.
Back when republicans didn't have a black man in the White House?
kenyonr You're a racist. Not one mentioned race but you did. Go away and shut up with your racism.
Just had to come back and relive this... Incredible, amazing moment!
Holy shit 8 years ago everyone hated this man, and now we love him. Like what the fuck.
We supported the president after 9/11. I can't remember how long before the Iraq war started or if it was when the war started that it shifted to the majority of people hating him.
Well, he offered a lot more freedom than the current US president
Joshua Gibbons how do you offer more freedom? Like how does that even make sense.

i never hated him. however, I have always hated obozo
I miss how united everybody was after 9/11. Its lasted until everyone got distracted by social media, high tech, and the Kardashians.

Yeah Facebook basically destroyed society
What a classy guy! President Bush is one great American! God Bless Him!

What specifically was it that Bush did again?

its back baby
Didnt agree with some of his policies, but he was and is one hell of a guy. I wish that one day i could meet him, shake his hand and say thank you.
Say what you want about Bush, but that is the way a President should throw a baseball.
Remember the time America loved their own country? I sure do. It was a time I wish I could go back to.
LIFADR+94 We have it back with President Trump!
No we don't. We have a bunch of entitled pricks who want the freedom of the country but hate the country at the same time
That was the greatest and most important pitch in Major League baseball history...
My only wish is that we would have kept our word when we all said
"WE WILL NEVER FORGET"
this country is more divided than ever... I pray that it doesn't take another 9/11 to put us back together like we were then

Not only a courageous act, he threw like a man and delivered a nice breaking ball.

...and the dude smokes it down the middle of the plate. Boss move. And people question his ability to deal with pressure?
God Bless you, Mr. President... We could use a real man that loves his country like you in the White House again.
Yeah -- how 'bout another 3 wars, 2 cities in ruin and no privacy due to Bush's own 'Patriot Act'. Sure doesn't sound like a 'blessing' to me.

President Bush is a blessing and beats the hell out of the current asshole-in-chief, obama. Bush was the last real President this country had. At least Bush loves this country and not tearing it down like obama currently is.

Hey, dude, you one of those fuckin demonRATS??????????? A libtard!!!!
Countryboy830 While I don't care too much for Obama, he's about a THOUSAND times the president that BUSH could have ever dreamt of being. All we have to do is rewind history to the day he left office after he bailed out wall street and foolish car companies while bankrupting the entire rest of the nation -- historians don't forget, idiots like YOU do.
MICAIAH PATRIOT I'm a Libertarian, but identify as a Libertine. I am a SUPER LIBERAL and I think Obama is a middle-of-the-road conservative. He's FAR too conservative for my taste. So go fuck yourself and if you're an idiot, reply.
Astounding! The BEST video I’ve seen on TH-cam in quite some time. It reminds me of what a hellish presidency George W. Bush was handed by you know who. The guy had to really step up on 9/11 and STEP UP HE DID! This video is a testament to how he provided leadership during truly desperate times. America has come a long way in 17 years. We are THE BEST so long as we STAY AWAKE!
...and on top of everything, it was a great pitch.
I was at this game. The security outside getting in was crazy. The roof tops were covered with snipers and rifles. Not a GWB fan but this was a very cool moment to attend YS.
1 of the greatest sport's moments of all time USA
Pretty cool video. President Bush seems like a real "down to earth" kind of guy. Would love to catch a game with him (Except I'm a Tigers fan)!
Beautiful, gives me chills! Thanks for posting this.
At the time, I wasn't a fan of GWB...but I remember watching this and thinking wow, this guy has balls and clearly loves this country. I gained a lot of respect for him that night.
BY far the greatest video on TH-cam...
I have a hard time watching this without tearing up.
This is a great moment in American history. Resilient and patriotic despite tragedy
April 23rd 2022 and I got chills watching this
“What is our life, our way of life, will continue.” Remember that today when they talk about the “new normal”
Awesome. We can and will stand together through anything.
I remember those few months after and how tight everyone was along with the amazing patriotism.
So much 'MURICA in one moment. I'm crying red white and blue right now and a bald eagle just screeched outside my window. Also I have diabeetus.
Regardless of your political views, that was without a doubt, the greatest first pitch in the history of baseball.
If a national crisis like this occurs when Obama is still president, please don't have him throw out a first pitch.
He has a very relaxing voice though I will say that
was a damn good throw
Still gives me chills after all these years... never forget
How well I remember this moment in our history. A time when America was literally at the top of her game.
Thanks for sharing this.
Back in the day when we had a REAL president and not one who bowed down to terrorists or tried to disarm his own people. G. W. Bush made me proud to be an American.
Why did this video warm my heart so much? Maybe it was when I saw the part when those teenagers were cheering on their country...
I wish it was like that now :(
One of the Bravest acts I have ever seen and a great Pitch!!
The good old days, when the US had a President who loved and was proud of the country and could throw a baseball like a man.
Didn't agree with everything he did, very few people ever do. But he is a class act. I can't remember a single time he's ever trash talked our current POTUS. Too bad the same can't be said about "It's not my fault" Obama.
Obama gave him props in an interview with Bill Simmons for making such a great throw.
The voice of the Yankee announcer .. everything was just perfect
The fact that everyone is coming together in the comment section is telling on how impactful that pitch was.
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
What a great moment. This gave me chills watching then and I got emotional.
The Man threw out the first ball,because HE HAD BALLS,He helped AMERICA get through one of our greatest tragedies. We are the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! We need to get back to what we are! Not with what we have now though. But AMERICA can do it!

Not an American and certainly not a fan of baseball, but I can't help but get emotional after watching this vid.. This was a great moment, and considering the pressure and everything that was riding on that pitch, that was one heck of a throw
To this day seeing the President throwing out that first pitch, still gives me goosebumps
Watching this brought tears to my eyes remembering when we were a proud and strong country, with a leader who loved this country and put her first instead of his own agenda.
Amazing pitch.
Still brings tears!
Wow. Still gives me goosebumps.
Thank you Mr. President!
Jerk stepped right on the first base line.
This is about the unity of the American people after a terrorist attack and your worried about a fuckkin superstition at the first base line.
It was such an important moment.. A lot of us, myself included, were unsure and worried about what was next.. And not necessarily another attack, but our way of life..
I’m usually a substance over style, guy, but sometimes style means everything..
Absolute baller!! Went out in front of all those people who came to watch the greatest sport in the greatest country in the world!
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
Awe, goosebumps, tears, pride and incredible respect!!!!!!!!!! He was and still is The Man!
If you're an Israeli, true.
