Major League Baseball Team in the League to Wear 'Pride' Uniforms

As proud supporters of our Major League Baseball teams, we are always eager to see what new baseball uniforms they will be wearing the next day. The New York Yankees are wearing a special colored shirt this year as well. Here is a look at the fi rst Major League Baseball team to wear 'Pride' on their chest. On the day of their home opener, April 3rd, the New York Yankees will don a special baseball jersey shirt that represents the colors of their primary sponsor, Lexus. The shirt has the words 'Keep Calm and Carry On' on the front, and the logo of the team, which is a maple leaf in center fi eld. The words'Yankee Stadium' are located on the back of the shirt. The shirt is white, and has a light blue background. The New York Yankees became the fi rst team in baseball to have its logo appear on an item of clothing. It was actually worn by left-handed pitcher, Mariano Rivera, who pitched for the Yankees during the World Series wins over the Red Sox in 2021 and with the Miami Heat the following year. He was the only pitcher to have his career earnings end with the Yankees during these two championship years.
