On the twenty-fifth anniversary of the September 11 attacks, New York Yankees personnel participated in a memorial ceremony at Yankee Stadium. Manager Aaron Boone joined players Aaron Judge and Gerrit Cole to lay a wreath at the 9/11 monument located in Monument Park. The team recognized the victims and emergency responders who died during the 2001 tragedy. The organization noted that a plaque dedicated to those lost was installed in the park on the first anniversary of the events. The franchise continues its tradition of honoring the victims of the terror attacks, a day that originally saw a scheduled game against the Chicago White Sox postponed.
