"hey fans! im editing the latest new yorker cartoon, does anybody know what the yankees home uniform look like?"

Yes, that is a Yankee player, batting in the bottom of the 9th, which means he is at home, except he is clearly - CLEARLY!! - wearing the Yankees away uniform. How can I tell? Well, let's see... there are some subtle clues:

Yankees home uniforms have an interlocking "NY" on the chest, the road uniforms say "New York"... hmmm... is there any other clue...

Maybe the fact that the word pinstripes is synonymous with Yankees! Do you see any pinstripes on that uniform, editor of New Yorker magazine? It is only, WITHOUT ARGUMENT SO DON'T EVEN TRY TO MAKE ONE, the most famous, instantly recognizable uniform in all of sports history.

In fact, the reproduction of the away uniform is so perfect that one wonders if the mistake was done on purpose. If it was meant as a slap to the face of Yankee fans. And don't even get me started on the fact that this guy has facial hair.

You failed to mention that in addition to the obvious accuracy failures in this comic, it's just plain ol' not funny.
