In the world of rivalries, you can’t get any better than the one between the Yankees and the Red Sox. The fans of each team are so passionate in both the love of their team and the hatred of the other team that it makes the Mac vs. PC rivalry look silly in comparison.
The folks at New Era, who manufacture all the caps for Major League Baseball, have taken this rivalry to a new level and hired two of NBC’s biggest comedy stars to show that Yanks vs. Sox transcends everything, including Thursday comedy lineup camaraderie.
In the ad — the first of a series — Yankee fan Alec Baldwin (’30 Rock‘) is talking on the phone with Red Sox fanatic John Krasinski (’The Office‘), and the trash talking between them is reminiscent of two buddies jawing about the teams over a few beers, with a few clever barbs thrown in for good measure.
The commercial and more after the jump.
