ATLANTA - The Atlanta Braves have issued a code red for all fans on Friday. Braves fans are being asked to wear red to support the team ahead of and during Game Three of the World Series.
The call for a "red out" coincides with the Braves uniform of choice for Friday night games.
The Braves are even with the Astros going into Game Three this Friday but are 5-0 at home for the Postseason. The Braves are hoping the "red out" will help push them ahead once again.
WORLD SERIES SHORT ON DRAMA SO FAR SHIFTS SCENE TO ATLANTA
In a tweet by the Braves on Thursday, the team wrote:
"TOMORROW: RED OUT!! Coming to Game 3? Wear RED!! Watching from home? Wear RED!! Wherever you’re watching Game 3, the mission is simple: WEAR RED!!"
While traditionally the home team wears white, the Braves have been wearing red at home on Fridays for years with the latest style jersey being introduced in 2019.

Game Three is Friday at 8 p.m.
