In the first inning, a woman walked past the cop and appeared to catch his attention.
He looked at her from behind as she walked past him.
The moment instantly went viral on social media and fans couldn't help but laugh at the officer.
"He about to risk the pension," one fan said.
"How blatant could it be… jeez louise!" another fan said.
"Lmaoooo I saw it live & broke out in tears," a third fan said.
"Double take too? Diabolical," a fourth fan said.
"Lmaooo bro couldn't resist," a fifth fan said.
Alongside the viral moment in New York came a return to form for the Yankees.
Perhaps a funny gimmick was all the team needed to spark some life into them.

The real reasons why And Just Like That failed to live up to Sex and the City
This week, the Sex and the City sequel series finished for good, bringing an end to the adventures of Carrie Bradshaw and friends. Here's why it never lived up to its beloved predecessor. Twirling in high heels and a sparkly pink ballgown, singing along to Barry White's You're The First, The Last, My Everything, Carrie Bradshaw danced out of our lives forever in the show's final ever episode, which aired in the US last night. And Just Like That – the sequel series to Sex and The City – had only clocked up three seasons (half of its predecessor) but a few weeks ago, amid reported falling ratings, showrunner Michael Patrick King announced out of the blue on the show's Instagram account that the series would be the final ever. "It became clear to me that this might be a wonderful place to stop," he explained, adding: "the ongoing storytelling of the Sex and the City universe is coming to an end". Sarah Jessica Parker – who has played the writer-cum-hopeless-romantic since 1998 – wrote a long tribute post on her own social media account: "Carrie Bradshaw has dominated my professional heartbeat for 27 years. I think I have loved her most of all". HBO Max The final ever And Just Like That episode ended with Carrie, alone but contented, dancing by herself in a pink ballgown (Credit: HBO Max) The idea of a SATC sequel was met with feverish excitement when it was officially announced back in January 2021. How amazing would it be to catch up with the four, much-loved old friends – Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker), Charlotte (Kristin Davis), Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) and Samantha (Kim Cattrall) – and revisit their lives as 50-somethings? However the show stalled at the first hurdle when it was revealed one of the original four women, Cattrall's man-eating PR queen, would not take part. In the second season of the show, Cattrall threw fans some crumbs with a 70-second cameo, but filmed her scene without any of the other cast members. How it failed its characters As for the other women? When the show premiered in 2021, there was widespread disappointment at the way these confident, strong friends had become unrecognisable; and if they were older, they certainly weren't wiser. Miranda, the straight-talking, highly intelligent lawyer was a bumbling wreck, forever blurting out the wrong thing and/or tripping up and falling over. Charlotte was a maniacally cartoonish Upper East Side mother, who also fell over lots (due, it turns out, to her sudden-onset vertigo, never mentioned before season three). And strangely Carrie, as a former sex columnist, could barely even utter the word on her short-lived podcast, having appeared to become more prudish over the intervening years. She also became even more narcissistic, and even more delusional in her romantic choices, after her great love Big (Chris Noth) died on a Peloton bike in the first episode of the reboot. King and his writers had done our girls a great disservice, was the general consensus.

Margaret Qualley dodges Taylor Swift question as husband skips new album
Margaret Qualley responded awkwardly when questioned about Taylor Swift 's upcoming 12th album, The Life of a Showgirl, during an appearance on the Today Show. Qualley, whose husband is producer Jack Antonoff, said she did not know anything about the album and giggled. Antonoff is notably absent from the production credits for Swift's new album. This marks the first time in over a decade that a Swift album will not feature Antonoff as a co-producer, having worked on her last seven records. Watch the video in full above.

Sarah Jessica Parker praises ‘meaningful' And Just Like That
Sarah Jessica Parker says she is unconcerned by the negative reception of the Sex and the City spin-off, And Just Like That, despite it being labelled a "hate watch" by many. The series, which has concluded its third and final season, faced widespread criticism for its plot arcs and character development, with viewership declining after a strong debut. Parker, who plays Carrie Bradshaw, said she doesn't "really care" about the detractors. She said the show was 'enormously successful and the connections it has made with audiences have been very meaningful'. Series creator Michael Patrick King said that the decision to end the show was creative, with Carrie Bradshaw's final line providing an "answer" to her journey.
