Yankees, sports world remember 25th anniversary of 9/11 with 'God Bless America' and moments of silence

Major League Baseball and teams across the sports world, including the New York Mets and New York Yankees, paused Friday to mark the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks with on-field tributes, special programming, community service projects and other observances.

In New York, MLB and the Mets co-hosted a meal-packing event Friday at Citi Field with the nonprofit 9/11 Day as part of the UNITE for Good initiative. The event took place just miles from where the attacks unfolded 25 years ago.
