See Simone Biles' BACKFLIP before throwing out the first pitch last night!

Simone Biles has had quite a year, making history picking up her 24th and 25th World Championship medals earlier this month, breaking a record in the process. Last night, the Houston-area native decided add a little flair in return for the invitation to throw out the first pitch in Game 2 of the World Series. Right before tossing out the pitch, something she's done in a game for the Astros before, she added a nice backflip, just to give the crowd something extra to cheer about. And of course, to keep training; she's prepping for the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo next summer.

And after that 12-3 drubbing at the hands of the Washington Nationals, Biles' backflip is one of the few things at the game that had Houston Astros fans cheering.
