And putting white names/numbers against sky blue and highlighter yellow just makes it worse. It could work as an All Star Game HR Derby uniform at best.

That actually makes sense in canon. Benjamin Sisko was shown to be a fan not only of baseball but of the game’s history (there’s a whole subplot involving him and a Willie Mays rookie card). So it makes sense that he’d pick traditional uniforms when he finally got to put his own team together.

ZipperClub Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 More number changes, another manager straying into spring training non-roster invite territory. Terry Francona 17 to 77 CA Francisco Mejia 33 to 17 Fortunately, we’ll rarely see this since Tito always wears pullovers to hide his gut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time to get rid of numbers and uniforms on MLB coaches, nobody wants to see it. And it frees up numbers for players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And seriously. They pinstriped the sides. The just figured this didn't matter because it's hidden in the pants? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putting pinstripes on that would seem forced and pointless. Like making the underside of the cap brim the same color as the cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no doubt that you're right. I think the mesh flap serves the exact same purpose as those oh-so trademarkable and marketable vents on modern football helmets.

Thinking about it now, maybe because it’s only been around for 2 years, I haven’t seen a single fan wearing the pinstripe flex base uniforms yet.

This makes a lot of sense but fans who buy authentic jerseys to wear them actually wear them outside of their pants so, for the sake of making sure fans buy these jerseys, they should probably put pinstripes on that flap.

Neither have I. The flap obviously doesn't impact the on-field look, but it looks godawful on fans. And I'm not sure I've seen a single fan wearing one of those flex base Yankee uniforms yet.
