NEW YORK -- Steve Cohen saw all of the memes about the new New York Mets' sponsorship patch and decided he needed to make the change.
"They're Phillie colors," Cohen said. "They should be more Met-appropriate."
After a call with NewYork-Presbyterian, the Mets will be tweaking the new sponsorship patch -- the team's first. The patch, which was red and white, will now sport a more team-friendly look.

Fans on Thursday poked fun at the patch and its sponsor, especially because of the large group of players -- including Justin Verlander and Edwin Diaz -- currently on the injured list.
