The Boston Red Sox took on the New York Yankees on Saturday night at Fenway Park, and as is customary for Boston this year, they donned their yellow City Connect jerseys for the matchup instead of their classic blues, whites, reds or grays.

Boston's City Connect jersey, which shares the same colors as the city's famous marathon, is obviously striking, and for fans catching the nationally televised game, this may be the first time they're seeing them.

While Red Sox fans are used to them by now, Yankees fans and just casual baseball fans shared their confusion and displeasure on social media.

Here's what they had to say:

Taking aim at the jerseys is harsh enough but the ricochet shot at the Celtics? That's hurtful.
