Thunder Unveil “New Look” Home Uniform

Trenton, NJ--The Trenton Thunder, the Double-A affiliate of the New York Yankees, unveiled a new color scheme for their home uniform today at the Greater Mercer County Chamber of Commerce “Sports Day” Luncheon. Fans will see the uniform up close at the Home Opener on Thursday, April 8th.

“We wanted to keep a similar look to our home uniform, but, as we enter our second decade, wanted to give it a fresh new look,” said Thunder General Manager Rick Brenner. “We have had royal blue pinstripes on our home uniforms since 1998. We have just added some more blue to the uniform.”

The primary colors for the home uniform are now royal blue and black. The uniform remains with the same “THUNDER” angled logo across the chest set against pinstripes. The home game cap for the Thunder has also been adjusted. The Thunder logo is set against a royal blue cap with a black bill.

This will be the third home uniform for the Thunder in the eleven years of the franchise. The first ten seasons saw the primary colors as green and black. The 1994 uniform had a “bubble” style to the lettering, but changed for the 1995 season to the current angled script style.

“We have always given our players the best uniforms for on the field just as we have given our fans the best off the field,” added Brenner. “This new color scheme is one that we hope our fans will take to quickly.”
