‘Definitely Sad’ Donald Trump Shooting ‘Shocks’ Yankees Reliever Amid Aaron Boone’s ‘Scary’ Confession

The Yankees entered the 2024 season on a high note. The team surpassed 500 pct and topped the AL East standings. However, they dropped to second place midway through the season. The Bronx lost a series to the Red Sox and Blue Rays, adding to their woes. The Yankees, two reliable players in Aaron Judge and Juan Soto, showed their ‘A’ game against the Orioles. The team hit homers and won 1-6 in a much-needed game. But aside from the Yankees fans celebrating in New York, the city is witnessing something unusual with former US President Donald Trump.

In an unfortunate incident on Saturday night, Donald Trump narrowly escaped a major assassination. Around 6:13 p.m., at Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, the crowd was panicked by the sounds of gunfire in the arena. Yankees baseball pitcher Clay Holmes shared his thoughts on the incident.

After the Orioles game, Holmes met the NJ Advance reporter in the locker room and said:“I don’t know the details yet, but it’s absolutely shocking, it’s absolutely sad, it’s crazy.” During the attack, Donald Trump had a bleeding ear from the assailant’s bullet. Shortly after he was hit, security guards pulled him off the stage and brought him to the armored vehicle.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone also spoke out about the incident with Trump, saying: “When I see some of the footage of it, it sounds like he’s doing well. I mean, that’s scary and horrible and awful, and hopefully he’s doing well, and whoever’s involved is being put away.” Shortly after the attack, the medical team examined Trump and he later flew to New Jersey.

Additionally, his son Trump Jr. shared more insights about Donald Trump’s injury, saying: “is in the best of moods.” WWith Yankees pitcher Clay Holmes and Boone expressing their condolences to the former US president, Trump has a recognizable bond with the Yankees.

The Connection Between Donald Trump and Yankees Legend Mariano Rivera

Donald Trump has been a Yankee supporter since he was a young boy. He admires future Yankees catcher Yogi Berra and used to collect baseball cards. He also developed a great relationship with the late Yankees owner George Steinbrenner when he became a businessman. Trump and Mariano Rivera have been in close contact since 2016. They have both been friends since their Hall of Fame playing days.

Rivera also said, in a conversation with host Sid Rosenberg about Trump: “I can’t deny that. I’ll tell everyone that. Before he was president, he was my friend. That’s why I’m going to vote for him.” Riviera has supported Donald Trump since he first ran for office in 2016.

Ultimately, their friendship continued years later when they met at the White House in 2020 to watch the youth baseball game. Moreover, Mariano Rivera was also awarded a medal by Donald Trump for his brilliance on the mound and his ambitious journey from Panama to the Major League. However, if you imagine the current scenario, Donald Trump’s assassination attempt was an unfortunate incident. It has shocked the entire country and may raise concerns about the safety of the people of America.
