Marlins announce dates they will wear teal uniforms to celebrate 30th anniversary

The Miami Marlins will be wearing a lot of teal at a lot of their Friday home games this season.

The club had already announced a little more than a month ago their plans to have Flashback Fridays to commemorate the franchise’s 30-year anniversary, which was to include the occasional use of throwback uniforms.

But on Friday, the team announced it will be wearing its throwback uniforms — teal hats featuring a 30th-anniversary logo patch on the side, home white jerseys and pants with teal pinstripes — for 11 of their 13 Friday home games, starting with their first Friday game of the season on March 31 against the New York Mets.

The home games when they will wear the throwback uniforms are as follows:

March 31 against the New York Mets

April 14 against the Arizona Diamondbacks

April 28 against the Chicago Cubs

May 12 against the Cincinnati Reds

June 23 against the Pittsburgh Pirates

July 7 against the Philadelphia Phillies

July 21 against the Colorado Rockies

July 28 against the Detroit Tigers

Aug. 11 against the New York Yankees

Aug. 25 against the Washington Nationals

Sept. 22 against the Milwaukee Brewers

The two Friday games that the team won’t be wearing teal: June 2 (Lou Gehrig Day) against the Oakland Athletics and Sept. 15 (Roberto Clemente Day) against the Atlanta Braves.

The Marlins last wore the teal uniforms during the 2018 season for a weekend series against the San Diego Padres to commemorate the organization’s 25th anniversary.
