As part of the celebrations honouring the jersey retirement of Bernie Williams #51, the New York Yankees will be wearing a special patch featuring the former Yankee great.
The patch shows Bernie following through on a swing, presumably a base hit of some sort, inside a gold and navy blue diamond. “Bernie Williams” scrawled across a banner above, team name on a ribbon below. Williams’ #51 is shown on the Yankees home white pinstripes below the diamond.
The Yankees are set to retire two more numbers during the season, which will likely result in their own special patches. Jorge Posada’s #20 will be retired on August 22nd, and Andy Pettitte’s #46 will be retired on August 23rd.
