Jeff Bauman Calls His Own First Pitch a Strike at Fenway Park (Animations)

Jeff Bauman and Carlos Arredondo threw out the first pitch at Fenway Park on Tuesday night, and they did it in style.

The two Boston Marathon heroes both threw their ceremonial first pitches for strikes in what was a great sight for everyone who witnessed it. The accuracy of the throws might have had something to do with the advice the pair received before the game from a certain Pedro Martinez.

Check out the “Boston Strong” moment — and Bauman’s emphatic “strike” call — in the animations below.
