The Pinstriped Baseball Lane

Now more than ever, with all that is happening in the world, the baseball world will provide everyone with some much needed entertainment to help them cope with everything. Baseball is back and the sport will do its best to bring unity across the United States.

On 9/11, a day that will forever be etched into our memories, the two New York baseball teams will face off at Citi Field. In terms of unity and what the coronavirus is putting us through, this year’s 20th anniversary of the terrorist attack will no doubt be filled with so much emotions.

While many of us remain uncertain about what form the 2020-2021 season will take for the Yankees, even after Monday night’s schedule reveal, we finally have an event on the 2021 calendar. With so much uncertainties in the the world today, I know one thing is for certain, that night will obviously be very emotional. As both teams will meet in 2021 to once again commemorate the tragic lives lost on that fatal day, the Yankees and Mets will do their best to put together a special presentation that may help people get through the dark history of the terrorist attacks that rocked our nation.

BASEBALL!!!!!!, also known passionately as America’s Pastime, is now more than ever needed in this country. Time and time again, baseball is one of the many sports that has brought this nation together. Hopefully, if this pandemic allows the baseball season to go all the way in this shortened season, the game of baseball should provide some sense of understanding and unity. To me, there is no better way to bring the New York community together, even through a time where we all must stay socially distant.
