Red Sox revert to home whites, raising questions about yellow jerseys
Summary

The Boston Red Sox have stepped back from their yellow City Connect jerseys during Saturday home games, opting for traditional home whites. This shift noted during games against the Blue Jays and Athletics suggests a potential phase-out of the yellow alternates first introduced in 2021. The team's Twitter bio has also changed, no longer mentioning the yellow jerseys. Observers are awaiting the outcome of an upcoming game against the San Francisco Giants on August 20 to see if the trend continues, which could indicate a permanent departure from the yellow kits.
