Recommended Posts

In honour of his retirement... a player in the wrong helmet.

Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

It's true that the original topic of this thread used "the wrong uniform" to mean "the wrong team". Still, it is perfectly valid to broaden the concept to add "right team but wrong uniform", especially as the original theme had long ago run its course.

BgMack already mentioned Robin Yount wearing the wrong Brewers uniform. Others that qualify in this category are:

Each of these guys is pictured with a team that feels right for him, but in a uniform from outside the eras with which each is typically associated with that team.

I know I posted him before, but that was the white jersey, here's one of him in the road burgundy.

Here's the other for reference.

It's a shame that this match up went from a good looking match up to a complete visual abomination.

Totally.

Tracy McGrady

Can McGrady have a baseball career? Probably,probably not.

The jury might be out on this one. The Skeeters are no slouch of a minor league team, these guys are part of the Atlantic League which is comparable to Triple-A ball. If McGrady can make the roster, it would mean a lot.
