Digital On-screen Graphics
- 2002-2004: Blue diamond, outlined in white in upper left-handed corner of screen. Red arrows, outlined in white, around diamond to show baserunners at their respective bases. The team's initials were boxed next to their amount of runs scored in the center of the diamond. The inning was placed above the score while the amount of outs and current pitch count were placed below the score. The YES logo was found at the bottom of the diamond, disappearing temporarily after incoming pitch speeds.
- 2005: The on-screen scoreboard was slightly modified for the 2005 season. The blue diamond lost its white outline, given a darker more royal-blue color to it. The arrows signifying the baserunners were changed to a bright yellow. The teams initials remain in the middle, now only in silver boxes with their amount of runs scored directly to the right in white in black backgrounds. The pitch count and number of outs changed to white on a black background. A small red capsule would appear next to the team currently batting. Just like after a pitch speed, the YES logo at the bottom of the graphic changed after a home run was hit. When that happens, a yellow rectangle takes the place of the logo in bold capital letters spelling HOME RUN.
- 2006: During Spring Training of 2006, the on-screen scoreboard changed dramatically. The scoreboard changed from a diamond in the left corner to thin banner spanning the top of the screen. The banner was white with a chrome finish. On the far left of the banner was the diamond showing the runners at each base. The bases in the diamond were outlined in blue and each base would glow yellow when a runner was on that specific base. Next to the diamond were the team scores. The teams initials were found in black boxes encased in a large rectangle featuring the team's main color. Also in the rectangle was the team's number of runs scored in black on a white background. From left to right, the inning, number of outs and pitch count were in small black rectangles. To the far right is the YES logo which would slide to the right to show the most recent pitch speed. After each pitch, or after an out or run was scored, the appropriate box would flash blue to the appropriate stat. After a home run was hit, the diamond would turn blue displaying the letters 'HR' in the center.
- 2007-2009: The only subtle to change to the scoreboard was in the base diamond. The bases were now outlined in black and after a home run was hit, the diamond would turn black before displaying the 'HR' text.
- 2010–present: During Opening Day of the 2010 season, the graphics changed dramatically. The scoreboard changed from a bar that spanned the top of the screen to a smaller one placed on the top left of the screen. The bar is white fading into black with the team names in their respective team colors with their score next to them. The bases graphic is on the far right. The inning count, outs, and pitching count (balls and strikes) is in a black graphic bar under the main bar. And to the right, the current pitcher's pitch count, in a separate section in black text with a white background. This area also is used to show the last pitch speed displayed in black text within a yellow background for a few moments after each pitch. When a Home Run is hit, the "HOME RUN (Player)" text will scroll to the left on their respective team's color background, and under it will say which home run it was during the season (E.g. 7th HR of the season).
Brooklyn Nets broadcasts use a variation of the above graphics. The YES logo is colored black during Nets games. During the Nets' New Jersey tenure, the YES logo was colored red.
