SALEM (WSLS 10) - Opening day is 33 days away for the Salem Red Sox, but the team's new uniforms, unveiled Wednesday, are already scoring points with team managers.
The Salem Sox held a news conference, fashion show style, to unveil the season's main uniforms for 2015 season. WSLS 10's Dawn Jefferies modeled the vibrant red 'home alternate' jersey, which has "Red Sox" across the chest and a 20th season patch on the sleeve. The team's home jersey is the iconic Red Sox's clean, white jersey with "Red Sox" written across the chest as well.
"We really wanted to seal that relationship between Salem and the Red Sox this look rather than hinting to the Red Sox as we did in the past really does bring us in line with what the Red Sox have," said General Manager Ryan Shelton. "The away game gray and away alternate blue jerseys feature "Salem" across the front in the same font as the parent club in Boston.
Four specialty jerseys were also unveiled. They include A Military jersey, in camouflage to mark the team's military appreciation and a pink jersey to be worn Mother's Day weekend for "Pink in the Park" as part of Susan G. Komen Race For the Cure. There's a uniform throwing back to the Salem Avalanche which will be worn during a "Turn Back the Clock" night Shelton said proved successful last year.
Shelton explained, "Fans loved it. They responded they were grateful that we wanted to honor that history here."
The final, specialty uniform is a "Back to the Future" inspired jersey to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the iconic film which will be celebrated during one of the team's promotional games this season.
Shelton said, "We're continuing some of the promotions we brought last year such as live music every Thursday night, fireworks every Friday. We're now adding the military Jersey to that. Saturdays are are nine innings of winning and Sundays we have a family fun day. So there's a lot of great Single-A promotions, very kid-centric events."
Shelton says Salem is looking forward to more fans coming out to Salem Memorial Ballpark this season.
"We've doubled the season-ticket base again year-over-year. We're expecting huge attendance games once again as we had last year."
