Need help identifying grass type on my lawn

Pardon the dumb question since I've never had to take care of a lawn before until now... :)

We moved into our new home a little over a year ago and the builder put in sod. I was told that our lawn consists of fescue but I'm not sure if that's even right. Lately, I've noticed that that certain spots of my lawn have a different variety of grass that looks different than the rest. My neighbors have said that it's not a weed but just a different type of grass and if I don't get them under control, they'll eventually overtake the other grass and becomes the dominant ones. My wife doesn't like the look of this "invading" grass either so she's been pulling them out as much as she could.

Here's the link to the two types of grass:

Thanks!
