The New York Yankees play the New York Mets at Yankee Stadium on Friday, Sept. 11, marking the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. Outlets report that the game includes emotional on-field ceremonies tied to the anniversary, alongside the standard pregame process leading to the first pitch.
Along with the commemorations, both teams treat the matchup as a regular-season game. Yahoo Sports also publishes the Mets’ announced batting order for the contest, detailing which players are in the starting lineup for the Mets against the Yankees. The coverage centers on both the day’s remembrance and the practical game details, such as the Mets’ lineup, rather than on postseason implications or player storylines.
