Prior to the New York Yankees matinee game against the Baltimore Orioles game on Wednesday, the Bombers held a very touching ceremony to honor those who were lost on that day.

Congressional Medal of Honor recipient Sgt 1^st Class Leroy Arthur Petry was recognized, while Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld escorted wounded warriors from Walter Reed National Military Medical Center onto the field.
