On the anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks, a spectator entered the field of play at a New York baseball game while carrying a Palestinian flag. The incident occurred at 9:11 p.m., a timing noted for its symbolic connection to the date. As the individual ran across the field, the crowd responded by chanting "USA." Security staff quickly intervened, tackling the man and removing him from the playing area. During the removal process, some members of the crowd threw beer cans at the individual. The game featured a ceremonial first pitch thrown by a couple who had met at a summer camp for children who lost parents in the 2001 attacks, adding a layer of emotional significance to the evening's events. While the incident caused a brief disruption, the game continued following the removal of the spectator.
