Yankees Went With a #BAEROD Hashtag After Alex Rodriguez Hit a Grand Slam

Yankees went with a #BAEROD hashtag after Alex Rodriguez hit a grand slam:

Alex Rodriguez hit a grand slam in the bottom of the seventh on Tuesday to put the Yankees ahead for good in what ultimately became an 8-4 win over the Twins, and the team's official Twitter account celebrated in the hippest way possible.

Yep, that really is a #BAEROD hashtag. 

The whole "brands saying bae" thing is so 2014, but this feels more like genuine joy, and like the team is in on the joke rather than making a lame attempt to connect with a cooler segment of society.
