VIDEO: Simone Biles Throws Out Awesome First Pitch Before Astros-Nationals World Series Game 2

The Houston Astros pulled out all the stops for World Series Game 1 on Tuesday by having former catch Brian McCann throwing out the ceremonial first pitch and Houston Texans defensive end JJ Watt delivering an electric "play ball." How could the Astros top the pregame festivities at Minute Maid Park for World Series Game 2? Why not have Texas native and Olympic gold medalist gymnast Simone Biles throw out the first pitch. And it was no ordinary first pitch, as Biles performed a corkscrew backflip prior to throwing the ball to Astros outfielder Jake Marisnick.

We'd venture to say Brian McCann could never do that. Or any of us for that matter.

Biles effortlessly just showed the entire world why she's the best gymnast alive. We'll see if the Astros can use that positive energy to get the crowd going early.
