The Boston Red Sox City Connect uniforms are polarizing among baseball fans. The bright yellow jersey and light blue accents are a far cry from Boston's typical getup — "red" is in the team name, after all.

But the Red Sox's success in their yellow kit can't be denied. They're 30-8 all-time in their City Connect uniforms dating back to their introduction in 2021.

The Red Sox's record in yellow is a strange phenomenon. Maybe the meaning behind the jersey gives players some extra motivation — the uniforms celebrate Boston's resilience after the bombing at the Boston Marathon on April 15, 2013.

The Red Sox, in particular, have a special connection to the event. They play an early game each year on Patriot's Day and Sox fans all over remember David Ortiz's "This is our f-----g city" speech. Boston's athletes and fans came together in ways rarely seen before after the attack.

Yellow and blue are the colors of the city of Boston's flag, and the sleeve is adorned with a marathon bib that bears Boston's area code, 617. This year, all jerseys include a "49" heart patch to honor the life and legacy of Tim Wakefield. The Sox most often don their special uniforms for Saturday home games.

Here are the dates and matchups for the rest of Boston's City Connect outings this season.

The Red Sox have some tough matchups in their City Connects for the rest of the season. Boston still has all four series with the arch-rival Yankees coming up, and the good luck the yellow uniforms seem to bring may help the Sox steal a few wins from the top team in the AL.

Hopefully, the Red Sox's luck in their City Connects continues against tough opponents. They could help the Sox boost their lackluster home record and bring some confidence for a late-season turnaround.
