Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton React to Yankees Players Wanting Alternate Road Jerseys
New York Yankees star sluggers Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton sound open to wearing an alternate navy blue road uniform.
"I think we'll always wear the pinstripes at home. I don't think that'll change. We've changed our road jersey other years. So I guess if we wear the blues, we'll wear the blues on the road," Judge told reporters on Wednesday.

Stanton called the Yankees' current gray road uniforms "iconic" but added that "a lot of people would be ok with" adding an alternate combination.
Brendan Kuty of The Athletic reported Wednesday that Yankees players "recently pitched higher-ups" on wearing their navy jerseys during road games. The navy jerseys are typically used for batting practice and spring training games. Multiple players told Kuty that "they were hopeful they would get to wear the alternate jerseys soon, though they weren't sure whether it would happen."
According to MLB.com's Bryan Hoch, the Yankees' navy batting practice jerseys have been approved by the league to be part of the uniform rotation for games.
While slight alterations to their team uniforms have been made over the years, the Yankees have never added an alternate jersey in the franchise's history. They also never added a City Connect jersey, joining the Athletics as the only two franchises without one.
Kuty noted that the final decision as to whether to bring the navy blue jerseys into regular-season games will likely be up to Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner, who has previously been resistant to making major changes.
However, after Steinbrenner got rid of the team's longstanding policy of prohibiting facial hair last season, he could be more open to appeasing the players if they make a hard push to add some new flavor to their uniform lineup going forward.
