Following the anthem, the crowd responded with applause and chants of “USA! USA!”
The broadcast camera cut to Trump in the stands, where the crowd responded with applause and chants of “USA! USA!” that echoed throughout the ballpark. The warm reception from the New York crowd marked one of Trump’s highest-profile public appearances since returning to office earlier this year.
Earlier in the evening, Trump visited the Yankees clubhouse and met star outfielder Aaron Judge. Shaking hands with the MVP slugger, Trump joked, “I wish he was a little bit bigger,” before quipping, “You have that much muscle you have to hit the ball far.” Judge, who stands at 6-foot-7, is one of the league’s most dominant players.
Prior to the game, the Yankees posted that "President Donald J. Trump scheduled to attend Yankees-Tigers game on September 11 at Yankee Stadium ... The New York Yankees and the White House today announced that President Donald J. Trump is scheduled to attend the Yankees-Tigers game on Thursday, September 11 at Yankee Stadium. Pregame ceremonies will recognize the victims and heroes of 9/11."
The Yankees are currently in the American League wild-card race, sitting just behind the division-leading Toronto Blue Jays with only a few weeks left in the 2025 season.
