Yanmar America renews support of the Atlanta Braves for 2024 season

Yanmar America Corporation is continuing its sponsorship of the Atlanta Braves Major League Baseball (MLB) team. Official Partner of the Atlanta Braves Grounds Crew, Yanmar will support the Braves at Truist Park in Atlanta, Ga.

“Our partnership with the Atlanta Braves underscores our commitment to supporting excellence in sports and community engagement,” said Jeff Albright, president of Yanmar America. “We’re proud to provide top-of-the-line equipment that helps maintain the field at Truist Park, ensuring an exceptional experience for players and fans alike.”

Yanmar is the exclusive tractor brand for the Atlanta Braves. Yanmar services and maintains these tractors on an annual basis to ensure they are the top of their game for field maintenance. These tractors were specially customized with extended rear hitches to facilitate the transportation of batting practice equipment and field supplies. Additionally, two SA223s were outfitted with push blocks and straps, enabling the smooth deployment and retrieval of the protective tarp covering the infield.

Yanmar’s YT347 is equipped with ultra-wide turf tires and custom wheels to operate the aerator, enhancing turf quality by allowing fertilizer application.

Yanmar has a long history of sharing the excitement and power of sport through global sponsorships that include soccer as well.
