According to Cody Derespina of Newsday, WCBS and Dick's Sporting Goods made the same mistake the Philadelphia Inquirer made and ran an claiming the Yankees had won their 27th world championship.

The ad, which ran Tuesday during the 1 p.m. hour, reportedly was to promote Yankees championship gear and said that the franchise had already captured its 27th title.
