Watch: Emotional National Anthem Before Game 6 of World Series

Tuesday night’s World Series Game 6 kicked off with an emotional tribute to 22-year-old St. Louis Cardinals rookie outfielder Oscar Taveras, who died in a car accident Sunday in the Dominican Republic.

The stadium observed a moment of silence to honor the ball player shortly before the National Anthem.

The Kansas City Symphony Orchestra, led by director Michael Stern, then performed The Star-Spangled Banner.
