2025 MLB Jersey Patch Sponsors: The Brands Behind Baseball

The jersey patch era is in full swing for the 2025 MLB season — and it’s changing the game. With 25 of 30 teams rocking sponsored patches, Major League Baseball is following the NBA and NHL into a new sponsorship frontier. From hometown heroes to global giants, brands are locking in jersey real estate to tap into loyal fanbases and big-league star power.

In our latest blog, we break down every team’s 2025 patch sponsor, explore the industries behind them, and highlight how brands are stepping up to the plate — especially on powerhouse teams like the Yankees and Dodgers.

Finance reigns above other industries with five brands, followed by energy with three each. The rest of the MLB jersey patch brands are spread across a wide variety of industries including healthcare, convenience stores, building materials, and even gaming (Nintendo).

Motorola is the only brand sporting two MLB jersey patch deals (with the Cubs and Padres), playing in both the West Coast and the Midwest. By linking up with teams that boast major national fanbases, they’re not just covering geography—they’re claiming prime real estate on some of the game’s most-watched jerseys. They’re not stopping at baseball either as Motorola also suits up with the Chicago Bulls and Milwaukee Bucks, proving their patch game is strong across American sports leagues.

There are currently 5 MLB teams without jersey patch sponsors: Chicago White Sox, Minnesota Twins, Tampa Bay Rays, Washington Nationals, and Colorado Rockies.

MLB 2024 Postseason & MiLB Helmet Sponsorship

This multi-year partnership between MLB and the German workwear brand began last season with all teams wearing Strauss-branded batting helmets during the 2024 MLB Postseason. This will continue for the 2025 MLB postseason and an addition will be worn on all 2025 Minor League Baseball (MiLB) regular season batting helmets.

Some of the biggest innovations in 1980s personal computing involved systems built around Motorola 68000-series microprocessors: Apple's Macintosh would be the most successful, but the Atari ST and Commodore Amiga fundamentally changed the playing field, especially for musicians and videographers who were just beginning to experiment with computers.

They were also *killer* gaming platforms.

Vintage Screen Time

We separated ourselves from our screens this past weekend and did a little antique shop browsing. The thing is we stumbled into a number of vintage screens that would qualify as sci-fi nostalgia these days.

These early televisions are from the companies including Motorola, Admiral, and Philco.

Fun times.
