Baseball and the Nation’s Healing | MLB News

MLB Network drops a powerful new documentary, “When America Took the Field,” on September 10th — a two-hour tribute to how baseball helped heal a nation after 9/11. Featuring legends like Joe Torre, Ken Griffey Jr., Bob Costas, and Joe Buck, it revisits iconic moments like Mike Piazza’s emotional homer in 2001 and President Bush’s World Series pitch. Beyond New York, the film captures how the entire baseball community rallied — players, families, and fans sharing raw, personal stories of resilience. Re-airing on 9/11, 12, and 13, and available via MLB.TV the week of 9/13, this is a moving, must-watch reminder of unity, courage, and hope in the face of tragedy.
