Former Yankees (and Astros) pitcher Andy Pettitte threw out the first pitch before ALCS Game 5
Before the Yankees' 5-0 win over the Astros during Game 5 of the American League Championship Series presented by Camping World took place, Yankee Stadium saw a familiar face. Number 46, Andy Pettitte, was there to throw out the ceremonial first pitch.
The three-time All-Star spent 15 seasons with the Yanks, and sandwiched between those were three seasons with the Astros. What a perfect way to reunite with your former teams.
Pettitte, of course, threw from the top of the mound and appeared to still have it:
For those of you wondering who the left-handed pitcher is pulling for in the series, MLB.com's Bryan Hoch reported that even though Pettitte sported both uniforms, he's rooting for the pinstripes in this one.
