That's 3.14159265358979323846264338327 arranged on the backs of their purple uniforms.

Or so it seems.

Everyone loved the picture. The Washington Posteven wrote up a cute piece on how the Rockies won Pi Day with their "delightfully nerdy" photo. Everyone on Twitter couldn't get enough.

But the Rockies let us know that the image is Photoshopped, which makes sense with their cheeky caption, "What are the chances!?"

If you just look up to the team's background image on their Twitter page it's the same exact photo. Except in the original version, the uniform numbers don't exactly read out pi to the 29th digit anymore.

Also, in the altered photo there's an erroneous "8" at the end since the 30th decimal place should be a "9," so we should have all known something was up.

But no matter its veracity, it's still a fun celebration of the infinite ratio between a circle's circumference and its radius. Happy Pi Day!
