It’s a known tradition that when a New York sports team wins an important game — usually in the postseason — the Empire State Building changes its colors to support that particular squad.
And with the Yankees winning Game 5 of the American League Division Series on Wednesday night, completing the comeback after being down 2-0 in the series, that was cause for a color change.
Here’s what the Empire State Building currently looks like.
