The Atlanta Braves<\/a> just became the first team to unveil their new 2026 Nike City Connect uniform, doing so via a video posted to their social media channels early this afternoon.<\/p>\n

Anyone who grew up a baseball fan in the latter part of the 20th Century knows all about Atlanta Braves Baseball on TBS. It didn\u2019t even matter if you lived far from Atlanta; heck, I grew up in Canada, and my family regularly watched Braves Baseball throughout the 1990s. Were we Braves fans? No, not really. But it was good, quality baseball, right there on your television, and it was on just about every night.<\/p>\n

Those who became baseball fans during the streaming era might not appreciate how fantastic this was.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s this unique time in history in which Braves Baseball was able to invade every market in the country that the club has chosen to celebrate and pay tribute to with their second crack at a City Connect uniform.<\/p>\n

The jersey is a baby blue pullover with a scripted \u201cAtlanta\u201d across the chest in white with red trim. The \u201cAtlanta\u201d script is lifted from the Braves\u2019 uniforms<\/a> worn from 1976 to 1980. The cap, also baby blue, features a white, scripted \u201cA\u201d with a red drop shadow, blue visor, and a red pipe between the crown and bill.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhere\u2019s the TBS connection?\u201d you ask.<\/p>\n

Well, it\u2019s on the new sleeve patch, which features the club\u2019s abbreviation of \u201cATL\u201d laid out in the style of the 1990s TBS logo. Three blue parallelograms with one white letter with a red drop shadow in each, placed above the blue\/red\/blue sleeve striping. It\u2019s not bad.<\/p>\n

On the back, we have the player names in simple blue block lettering, arched over the number, which is white with blue and red trim. Sadly, none of the players will be wearing \u201cCHANNEL \/ 17\u201d<\/a> as their name and number. Pants are white (novel!) with blue\/red\/blue striping down the side. The club says the City Connect gear will be available starting April 9th at their team store.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe honour this legacy, not by looking back, but by bringing it forward,\u201d reads a voiceover in the unveil video. \u201cThis is a nod to an era remixed for the next one, a uniform inspired by innovation. This isn\u2019t just what we wear. It\u2019s who we\u2019ve always been. Connected. Unmistaken. Proud. Braves Country. This is Atlanta, and this is ours.\u201d<\/p>\n

This release did not come with a press release or any detailed photos, so we\u2019re left to largely speculate on the inspiration of this uniform, but it seems fairly straightforward here.<\/p>\n

Atlanta becomes the first club to reveal their 2026 City Connect uniform. We haven\u2019t gotten any official list of clubs to come this year, but we\u2019ve seen images floating around out there for Baltimore, Cincinnati, Kansas City, Milwaukee, Pittsburgh, San Diego, and Texas.<\/p>\n

This uniform will replace the existing Braves City Connect uniform<\/a>, first worn in 2023. That uniform was a modernized version of the Hank Aaron-style set, with \u201cThe A\u201d on the upper left chest<\/a> of the jersey.<\/p>\n
