Sports world marks 9/11’s 25th anniversary with tributes, flags, and unity
MLB and the broader sports world paused to mark the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks with on-field tributes. The Yankees and Mets wore first‑responder caps, the Toronto Blue Jays wore caps featuring both Canadian and American flags, and a wreath-laying and a national‑anthem moment under a giant field flag highlighted the ceremonies. The day was part of wider community efforts under the UNITE for Good initiative and 9/11 Day.
