G-Braves to wear 'Stars and Stripes' for July 4th

The Gwinnett Braves will be among the 128 minor league teams to wear a specialty "Stars and Stripes" cap Monday for the July Fourth holiday.

The cap design features a white star patterned background and a patriotic theme.

The New Era caps - sold in team stores and online - are part of a fund-raising campaign for Welcome Back Veterans, an organization dedicated to addressing the ongoing needs of military personnel and their families.

The Gwinnett Braves face the Norfolk Tides at 7 p.m. Monday at Coolray Field in Lawrenceville.
