Game 1 of the World Series took place in Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles Tuesday night. As members of sports teams continue to protest the national anthem by taking a knee, members of both the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Houston Astros stood to give their respect.
“Go Time,” the Dodgers tweeted ahead of the game, with a video of the team standing.
The Astros tweeted a photo of the team standing with an update of the score in the middle of the second inning.
“The Star-Spangled Banner” was sung by Keith Williams Jr.
