MLB 2026 Schedule: Yankees, Mets Set For Emotional 9/11

MLB set up a similar event in 2021 at Citi Field

The 2026 Major League Baseball schedule is out, and it features a powerful date involving the New York Yankees and New York Mets.

On September 11, 2026, the Yankees and Mets will face off at Yankee Stadium on the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, continuing a tradition that MLB participated in four years ago, when the two clubs played at Citi Field on the 20th anniversary.

It promises to be an emotional atmosphere in the Bronx next September as the crosstown rivals come together for a moment that will be a lot more important than baseball.
