President Trump attended the Yankees' 9-3 victory over the Detroit Tigers on the 24th anniversary of 9/11, receiving mixed reactions from the crowd. Enhanced security measures were in place following the recent assassination of a Trump ally. Trump chatted with Yankees officials, was shown on the jumbotron multiple times prompting cheers and boos, and even spelled out "YMCA" with his arms. He left after the seventh-inning stretch, receiving a warm welcome from the announcer. Yankees players reported feeling inspired by his presence and pre-game pep talk. This marked Trump's eighth major sporting event since January.
