George W. Bush’s pitch during the World Series between the New York Yankees and Arizona Diamondbacks after 9/11 is one of the greatest sports moments in history.

Bush took the mound in game three of the series to a tremendous roar from the crowd. He ripped a pitch straight down the the strike zone as the crowd went absolutely wild.

WATCH:

The terrorists might have killed thousands of people on 9/11, but they couldn’t even come close to breaking the spirits of the American people.

On that night in New York City President Bush and everybody in attendance showed the world that America was alive and well.
