Bmac Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 I want to point out again that I can only confirm the new shade of purple for the caps at this point, not necessarily the rest of the uniform. It could just be something related to New Era. But it was shown in the retail guide as a change. https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet1929 Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Thought this was worth pointing out... I clicked on the unused but still existing all purple Rockies cap and the detailed images that they show from the different angles showed two pics in entirely different shades. Not sure if this is lighting, two different caps being photographed, or a good yet unexpected comparison of the two shades of purple but the difference is more than noticeable...

Gothamite Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Purple is one of those colors that can really look different under different conditions. More so than almost any other.

When they re-introduced red cap last season along with the new red alternate both had gold trim around the TC logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my experience, at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet1929 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Don't forget the Rockies have that weird purple filter thing (or so we assume that's what it is) that shows their home jerseys in not gray/black but purple shadows... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My gawd look at all the Cubs fans! Judging by just what I can see in that photo, it's easily 10-1 Cubs fan to Rockies fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a lot of Cubs fans in Colorado though (probably because of WGN games before '93). Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

I'm curious, what was the percentage of Royals fans in Denver/Colorado before and after '93 (considering the Royals marketed their team to regions between the Pacific Coast and Missouri)?

If IIRC (and I was pretty young in 80s/early 90s) the Royals' had a decent-sized fan base in CO. I think we had a lot of Brewers fans due to the Zephyrs' affiliation as well as Wisconites moving to the area. Royals games were on one the five local broadcast channels some of the time, but we mainly received Cubs games on Denver's KWGN channel. That's what I remember, at least. Seemed like most Royals fans in the area became Rockies fans. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This reminds me of the Rockies not having a natural interleague rival. I know the royals have the Cardinals but it'd be kinda cool if they could plant the seeds of a rockies royals interleague rivalry. Just thinking out loud though.

Either way, it seems like the Giants are making these their regular season black alternates which in my opinion look much better than the ones they introduced two years ago with only an outlined logo and numbers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
