Historical Notes
At Yankee Stadium, preparations were under way for an evening baseball game against the Chicago White Sox. The Yankees had not played against the Boston Red Sox on September 10 due to inclement weather, but blue skies were forecast for the evening of September 11. The game was canceled due to the terrorist attacks earlier that day.
