While Aaron Judge and DJ LeMahieu battle it out on the field to determine the Yankees’ team MVP, the race in the broadcast booth has already been settled. Deliver the championship hardware to a plaid-wallpapered basement somewhere in Cincinnati, because Paul O’Neill has made his segments must-see TV.
The five-time world champion connects to each YES Network broadcast remotely, joining Michael Kay and David Cone in a picture-in-picture box. He caught everyone’s attention with his bold taste in interior design, as his green-and-gold plaid wallpaper hit Yankees Twitter and took center stage. He later added a dark curtain to cover the wall, but there’s no forgetting that wonderful choice in wallpapering.
