I was at the Thursday night game, too. The usher told us the reason they didn't shoot fireworks off after the homer was due to it being disability pride night. Apparently, some people with disabilities don't like fireworks?
This is true. I have a friend who has real trouble with July 4. His tremors significantly increase with the big bangs of holiday fireworks. He is very patriotic. This is all about his disability.
I've been to a few games this year and there has been fireworks at the ballpark along with the subsequent smoky haze.

PTSD is a (buzz).
I don’t have it, but my neighbors gave it their best shot this 4th… two knuckleheads shooting them off their rooftops. Didn’t realize I moved into a neighborhood of aspiring pyrotechnicians

I remember they suspended fireworks after 9/11 but restored them in 2002. Maybe in 2025 they figured the fireworks were scaring fans away.
