The Atlanta Braves yesterday unveiled their new alternate home jersey two weeks after it was first leaked by an online sports apparel shop.
This new jersey is cream coloured and inspired by the design the Braves wore for their first two seasons in Atlanta, on the sleeve is a new alternate logo which features two crossed tomahawks on a blue circle. The blue circle reads “1876 Atlanta Braves”, the 1876 symbolizes the season the Braves franchise was established in Boston.
The regular home cap (navy crown with red brim, white stylized ‘A’ logo) will be worn with this throwback inspired alternate; the pants will be also be cream coloured to match the jersey.
This new uniform will be added to the current rotation of Braves uniforms, the scheduling for what will be worn when has been adjusted slightly. The Braves announced the following in terms of what uniform is worn on what day:
- Home games Monday – Thursday, they wear their traditional home white uniforms.
- Home games on Friday, they will wear their red jerseys with white pants and alternate cap
