All Mets, Braves stand for national anthem on Opening Day

Every player on the Mets and Braves stood for the national anthem on Friday, as was mostly typical across baseball’s restart. Players, coaches and staffers on the Nationals, Yankees, Dodgers and Giants all knelt (except for one) before the anthem on Thursday, then mostly stood for the actual anthem.

Players on the Mets and Braves did not kneel before the anthem, either.

This is a developing story and will be updated.
