It was supposed to be in "early August."I bet it's against this weekend vs. the Cubs sometimeThey're wearing their '59 throwbacks on Friday to honor Minnie Minoso. I'd be surprised if they wore two different throwbacks the same weekend, though I guess Minnie technically wore the '76 uniform, too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bouj Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Teams used to use different grays a few years ago. Majestic had problem making Coolbase jerseys in gray which matched the pants, so when they finally found a match, they gave that shade to all teams (and of course adjusted their pants accordingly). I think it's dumb that these teams were forced to use one gray. Some teams would look better with a slight hue to their jerseys, such as the Royals going with blue.The Marlins original road unis from 93 to the earlier 2000s were the best of this era, with the slightly teal tinted shade of gray.Most images I have seen dont show it clearly, but in person wheh they played the Rays I saw a difference.It's probably just your eyes playing tricks, every once in a while I feel the Dodgers are useing a blueish grey, but really they are just useing the same grey as everyone else.I thought The Dodgers wore blue-grey away jerseys for decades. I guess some colors just blend well with the grey and Dodger Blue is one of those colors.Henderson has some good examples of the various pre-CB grey shades, side-by-side. It's really something to see together. Go Astros!Go Texans!Go Rockets!Go Javelinas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnPheitseog Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Does anyone know if the Orioles will be wearing 1995 throwbacks for the 2131 anniversary game? Formerly known as DiePerske Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rxmc89 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I hope the Dodgers don't think that their 'Los Angeles' jerseys are bad luck after getting swept in Pittsburgh. It was refreshing to see them this last road trip and I hope they don't go back to wearing the 'Dodgers' ones all the time like they have the last couple of years.

It was refreshing to see them this last road trip and I hope they don't go back to wearing the 'Dodgers' ones all the time like they have the last couple of years..I agree, it was good to see and I'm not even a Dodgers fan, I'm Angels.Myself, I'm a strong believer that all MLB teams should wear the name of their city on their primary road jerseys.I'm not superstitious about uniforms or kits being good or bad luck. The Pirates are a good team this year and excelling as the season progresses. It nothing to do with the Dodgers wearing the 'Los Angeles' word-mark on their jerseys.* I'd really like to see the Cardinals make a gray version of their current cream alternate 'St Louis' uniform, and also resort back to the navy caps on the road. I loved those hooped socks they wore against the Brooklyn Dodgers during the '42' movie on Jackie Robinson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That couple would've made sure Baltimore had a home game on the exact date of the anniversary, which is also the 20th anniversary of my 8th birthday. It's a small thing and it doesn't really matter that it's not on the exact day, but it would've been more festive. Plus the 6th is a Sunday so you could make a bigger event out of it.

SilverBullet1929 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I'm pretty sure MLB scheduling still honors special days requested by teams. If the Orioles aren't at home that day it's possible they didn't request it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOldRoman Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 According to the mothership, they're wearing it to honor the 30th anniversary of the 1985 AL East champs. They're scheduled to wear it only once, but I imagine fans and players will love it, and it'll become a home alternate if not the primary home cap. If that's the case, I hope they pop for matching helmets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CalgaryJaysFan Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 GloriousA beautiful hat, but I sure wish New Era would finally eliminate those contrasting blue stitches on the front panel. But still.... A beautiful hat!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet1929 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 As great as that cap is , I prefer the current cap it just fits so well in 2015. That panel just screams 80s and 90s. The current cap is a perfect update for the current team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
