The New York Yankees and Mets have announced plans to honor the victims of the September 11 attacks during upcoming games at their respective stadiums. The tributes commemorate the 25th anniversary of the terrorist attacks that claimed nearly 3,000 lives.
ESPN’s Jorge Castillo reported from Yankee Stadium regarding how Major League Baseball is participating in the remembrances. The observances are part of a broader series of ceremonies taking place across the nation to mark the milestone anniversary.
While the specific details of the on-field tributes were not fully elaborated in the initial report, both franchises are expected to hold moments of silence and dedications consistent with MLB’s league-wide observances for the holiday.
I wonder if there will be any special player appearances or interviews this year? Seems like the first few sentences were a bit vague.
These annual tributes are so meaningful. It is important that we never forget the lives lost twenty-five years ago.
