I don’t know if the Yankees was originally gray. My guess would be no, but I can’t say for sure. That said, I think (won’t swear) that it would be fine in Oxyclean. Unlike bleach, Oxyclean is more of a cleaner than a bleacher.

I have a number of pennants that I need to clean as well. Is there any scrubbing or anything required or does the oxy clean just remove dirt from the soaking?

No scrubbing. Oxyclean works great on newer (stiff, post 1970s) pennants. Bleach can work wonders on the older, white, soft felt pennants but it can also ruin them (I know ). This has been discussed extensively in the “Hey, pennant guys” thread, with many before and after pics. The trick is finding those posts among the 1800+.
