Matt Harvey of the New York Mets greets Dustin Ackley of the New York Yankees in this photo from Major League Baseball's Twitter feed, ahead of the teams' game against each other on Sunday night. While many of those replying to the tweet didn't recognize the sarcastic tone of the line "I'm Matt, nice to meet you," Carolina fans will recall that the two were teammates in Chapel Hill.
