The New York Yankees are just one of two teams, along with the Detroit Tigers, that do not have an official alternate jersey in their wardrobe despite offering fans a million different types of Yankees merchandise.
The Yankees have worn different variations of their jerseys in league-wide circumstances including changing their caps and uniforms on days like Memorial Day, Mothers’ Day, Fathers’ Day, the Fourth of July, in remembrance of Sept. 11, and last year’s Players’ Weekend jerseys that were met with mixed reviews.
The Yankees wore the uniforms of the New York Black Yankees in 1996 to celebrate the Negro Leagues, and they donned jerseys from 1912 against the Red Sox to celebrate the 100th birthday of Fenway Park.
