A Philadelphia newspaper has apologized to readers for mistakenly running an ad congratulating the Philadelphia Phillies on winning back-to-back World Series titles.

The Yankees held a commanding 3-1 lead in the championship as of
Monday, the day the ad was printed in the Philadelphia Inquirer.

The three-quarter-page Macy's ad is on the back of the front
section and features a T-shirt with the Phillies logo, the
commissioner's trophy and the phrase "Back To Back World Series
Champions."

The Inquirer released a message to readers saying the paper
deeply regrets the error.
