Whelp, this was far from a good idea. Who green lit this?!
Fox sports used this graphic showing the footprints of the Twin Towers which are now used as a memorial to those who lost their lives during the terrorist attacks of 9/11/01 during a weekend broadcast of a Yankees-Red Sox game to promote their “Baseball Night in America” broadcast.
Can someone tell @FOXSports never to do this again? Beyond offensive. pic.twitter.com/Jf7D8DXLKf

Fox has apologized for the tone deaf graphic.
The graphic aired during the 6th inning of the nationally televised game, and also featured the logo for Fox’s “Baseball Night in America.”https://t.co/CpEy7Xg69U
