Trump scheduled to attend a Yankees game in New York on the 24th anniversary of the September 11 attacks, according to multiple sources.
In a unique blend of politics and sports, former U.S. President Donald Trump has a packed schedule of events coming up. Here's a rundown of the sports-related activities Trump is set to attend in the near future.
Next year, on July 4, Trump will make a surprising appearance at the White House Lawn for UFC fights, marking the United States' 250th birthday celebration. This will not be Trump's first foray into the world of sports, as he has attended several high-profile events in the past.
In 2021, Trump attended the Astros-Braves World Series. His sports calendar continued in July of the same year, as he was present at the FIFA Club World Cup championship held at MetLife Stadium. Trump's political engagements have also included attending a memorial event at the Pentagon on September 11, 2021, and participating in the remembrance event for the September 11 attacks in Lower Manhattan on September 11, 2023.
Trump's sports-filled schedule continues this year. On September 11, he is set to attend a New York Yankees game, which coincides with the 24th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The Yankees and Mets will also play a game on the same day at Yankee Stadium to commemorate the 25th anniversary of 9/11. Vice President JD Vance will represent the administration at a commemoration ceremony at Ground Zero in Lower Manhattan.
Trump's attendance at the Yankees game will mark his first baseball game during his second presidency. Interestingly, this will also be his first baseball game since before his political career, when he attended Game 7 of the National League Championship Series between the New York Mets and St. Louis Cardinals.
In 2019, Trump attended Game 5 of the World Series between the Washington Nationals and Houston Astros. The Yankees, who Trump will be watching this September, were in the World Series last year but lost to the Los Angeles Dodgers in five games. As of now, the Yankees are playing against the Detroit Tigers.
Trump has also expressed his intention to throw out the first pitch at a Yankees game, an opportunity he missed in 2020 due to a focus on the pandemic. Despite this, Trump has remained an avid sports enthusiast, attending various events throughout his tenure as President.
On September 26, Trump will attend the Ryder Cup in New York, an event with potential postseason implications. As the sports world eagerly awaits these upcoming events, it's clear that Trump's love for sports shows no signs of slowing down.
