The Kannapolis Cannonballlers (milb team) are celebrating their 30th year, but they started in 1995. 2024 – 1995 = 29, not 30. Sometimes they say it’s their 30th year, other times they say it’s their 30th anniversary, but I think those are different things. My first wedding anniversary was a year after my marriage, but idk if they’re counting the beginning or end of their season, but I still think they’re off by (at least) one. Am I crazy?
P.S. FWIW, Were currently in the middle of the season

Anniversaries work differently than that math you are doing.
Think about 2-1. That equals 1, right? But if you have a team that starts the season in year 1 and it is the end of the season year 2, how many years have they been a team? Two years. They played the season in year 1 and in year 2.
