Miami Marlins release city-edition jerseys honoring Cuba's Havana Sugar Kings

The Miami Marlins have always focused on Latin Americans as part of the team's identity, and now the team – along with Nike – are unveiling a sleek new look. Developed and designed in collaboration with Nike and MLB, the Marlins' "City Connect" jerseys are a new signature design that the team says "speaks to the legacy, culture, passion, and pride for baseball in South Florida." The jerseys are a homage to the Cuban Sugar Kings, a Cuban minor-league team that played from 1946 to 1960, and a tribute to that franchise's legacy and influence on baseball across Latin America. The new red uniform is meant to capture the 'energetic vibe' of Latin America.
