The air, you and the earths crust is all moving, rotating.

To expect anything else than it continuing to move would be odd. Imagine if when you threw something in the air it would suddenly not follow earths rotation. So a baseball would suddenly start flying westward at 1000miles per hour the moment it left your hand. That would be freaky as hell.
