A good question...
"Banners and signs are permitted provided they are baseball-related, in good taste, not of a commercial nature and not supported by wood, metal or other materials that could be injurious in a crowded public setting. Banners and signs may not obstruct the view of other Guests or Yankee Stadium advertising signage or be affixed to the Stadium in any manner. Banners and signs may be carried through the stands between innings only. Banners and signs may not be displayed in fair territory. Any banner or sign may be removed, at any time, at the sole and absolute discretion of the Yankees."

Why did the security allow those people to come into the stadium with the Trump banner? A fan is not allowed to take a bag into a stadium without opening it for inspection...That banner had nothing to do with baseball...Maybe some reporters should ask the Yankees organization...

Yankees management had a right to remove those people...It could ban those people from ever coming to Yankee Stadium...They could get trespass notice from Yankees...I am sure President Trump could also ban certain people from his properties...
Will some fan get away with showing BLM banner at Yankee Stadium? I have no idea...It is up to the Yankees management...
I would like to point out that President Trump considered George Steinbrenner a good friend...He passed away many years ago...He was the owner of Yankees...Steinbrenner family still owns Yankees...
Stolen elections can only have negative and lasting effects. Things can only get worse.
Hold it Gramps. It was in Yankee stadium against the Blue Jays. But still a commie state with commie loser teams. Screw MLB!
I long for my college days when we had an invocation before the game and we sang “Dixie” during halftime.
Venom? Really? You must live in a very sweet world indeed if you think that sign was venonous.
A sporting event should not be a venue for a team, player or fan to voice their political views, right or left !!
Most fans want to watch a sporting event to root for their team - and not be subject to anyone's political message!!
I agree 100%. But I’m still glad they did it.
I hope this happens on every bridge & billboard in the country
I do too ... didn’t know he passed. Thx ...
They would have praised them for lowering a BLM flag though. F woke sports
Perhaps a Trump supporter would be willing to make the sacrifice and hang a BLM sign just to test it.
