President Makes His Pitch – to Home Plate - Barack Obama : People.com

That was indeed I’m sure a treat for all who was at the baseball game. It is so awesome that the legend Willie Mays give him some pointers and coach the President doing his practice. I thought that is so adorable that he said Michelle thinks he’s cute in his Chicago baseball jacket.

It had been four years since he last threw a pitch, but with a little bit of practice in the Rose Garden – and some last-minute advice from baseball legend Willie Mays – President Obama lofted the first pitch at Tuesday's Major League Baseball All-Star Game in St. Louis.

Throwing from the mound, Obama had the benefit of personal coaching by Mays, 76, who flew to St. Louis with Obama aboard Air Force One. "I am telling him, follow through," Mays said as they made their way from Obama's speech in Detroit to the game. "He's going to do fine, I guarantee you. ... I just want to make sure he follows through."

That he did, though the pitch wasn't a strike – in fact it didn't quite make it all the way to the plate. The catcher leaned forward to scoop it up.

The president, who last threw a pitch at the 2005 American League Championship Series, had also practiced throwing the night before, with personal aide Reggie Love in the White House Rose Garden outside the Oval Office. "I think it's fair to say that I wanted to loosen up my arm a little bit," Obama said. He also dressed the part, wearing a Chicago White Sox jacket. "I'm a White Sox fan, my wife thinks I look cute in this jacket. So, why not?" the former U.S. senator from Illinois says.

Mays was in a laughing, feisty mood wearing a tattered Giants ball cap with his suit and tie. He said it was his first time on the presidential 747. "I'm impressed," he told reporters in the press cabin.

And he got emotional when asked by PEOPLE what he and Obama had been talking about in the forward cabin.

"I reminded him that I dreamed about this day – not being on Air Force One, but dreamed about someone in my race being president, not knowing that anyone would be. But I reminded him that I cried for most of the night in Chicago" on election night, Mays said, his eyes tearing up. "Stayed up all night. I went to sleep about 7, maybe 8:00 in the morning I was so proud. So that tells me all the things I went through it was for good things. So I'm just proud of him, you know."

Justin stole the show

Justin “Mr. To talented to be real” Timberlake stole the show last night on Jimmy Fallon. Jimmy and Justin have great friendship and you tell with the chemistry between them. Before Justin amazing impersonations he gave Jimmy autograph photo of Berry Gibb  and after that they did some of a reenactment of the famous SNL skit  of him and Jimmy  playing “Barry Gibb talk show” Justin plays Barry brother Robin. Before Justin came out Jimmy was naturally nervous with it being his first talk show.

I’m sure Jimmy will become more comfortable with the job. The monologue  seem awkward but the skit he did with the “Roots” was hilarious especially the part lead Rapper/singer Tariq did for what they called the “Slow Jams News”, but he will have to much better with the pre show games because the lick it for ten dollars was not really funny but the audience members chosen for the game were good sports about it.

Robert DeNioro did seem to try to act play alone with the banter they had and the skits were not very funny that they did together.

Finally the highlight of the night was Justin and when he came out   Jimmy seem to relax abit and Justin presence was very much needed because before he came out the show was very dull. His spot on impersonations of John Mayer where he sang “Daughters” and Michael McDonald where he did a Bud light Lime jingle  were pure genius.A video of it below.
