The Yankees tried to post a wholesome throwback… and may have accidentally created a rivalry controversy.

Evan and Tiki react to a Yankees social media post showing childhood photos of players like Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton. The problem? Internet sleuths quickly noticed something strange about Stanton’s Little League photo. His hat looked edited and fans soon discovered why: the original image appears to show Stanton wearing a Mets hat, which the Yankees seemingly removed before posting.

So why edit it at all? The guys debate whether the Yankees were trying to avoid trolling from Mets fans, protect their brand, or if this was just unnecessary “little brother” behavior from baseball’s most powerful franchise.

The conversation spirals into classic Yankees-Mets rivalry stories, including a legendary George Steinbrenner urban legend involving Andy Pettitte, Little League hats, and the Mets that may or may not have actually happened.

Plus, they break down why something as small as a childhood photo can turn into a full-blown New York sports debate.

A simple throwback post… or the pettiest Yankees move ever?
