Donald Trump scheduled to attend Yankees’ game on Sept. 11

President Donald Trump is scheduled to attend the New York Yankees’ home game against the Detroit Tigers on Thursday, Sept. 11.

The Yankees are expected to hold a pregame ceremony to recognize the victims and heroes of 9/11.

The president has made appearances at several sporting events this year, including the US Open men’s tennis final on Sept. 7 and several UFC events.

His arrival caused an increased presence of Secret Service, who are usually at the scene of the event with dogs on hand before the president’s arrival.

The Yankees encourage anyone with a ticket for the game to arrive early because of the enhanced security measures around Yankee Stadium.

The stadium gates are scheduled to open at 4 p.m. ET, three hours before the scheduled first pitch.
