For six games, Phillies will wear red

For the first time in eight years, the Phillies have added an alternate jersey. It is red. It will be worn six times in the regular season, all during mid-week afternoon games.

The Phillies have worn red in a regular-season game at least twice in their history. The last time was for a Turn-Ahead-The-Clock promotion on Sept. 11, 1999. More infamously, the Phillies donned all burgundy — including pants — for what was dubbed a "Saturday Night Special" on May 19, 1979.
