It's nine combinations, but if you include the two different cap options then it's some kind of number of combinations that scientists are still trying to figure out.

Damn! I forgot to account for the caps.

Damn! I forgot to account for the caps.

There would be 18 combinations taking into account caps, shirt, pants and it goes to 36 if you include the two different coloured stirrups

All joking aside, it isnt difficult

Caps * Jersey * pants * stirrups=combos

Works for anything like that as well.

To see it worked out, ill simplify it.

One Jersey, Two pants

1*1=2

Two jersey, one pants

2*1=2

One Jersey, two pants

1*2=2

Two jersey, two pants

2*2=4 ([Jersey, Pants] AA,AB,BA,BB

Two Caps, Two jerseys, two pants

2*2*2=8 [Caps, Jersey, Pants] AAA, AAB, ABA, ABB, BAA, BAB, BBA, BBB

And it does continue

[Silent Wind of Doom]

The Pirates were the original Oregon State. At least there's no vomit inducing camo though...

I think a certain Charlie O. would like to speak to you from the grave.

Yeah, I was just kidding around, and you're exactly right (except for the 1 * 1 = 2 part ).

Since they had 3 jerseys, 3 pants, 2 caps, and 2 stirrups, simply multiplying those four numbers together yields the number of possible combinations, as you stated earlier:

3 x 3 x 2 x 2 = 36 (about 34 too many, in other words)

At least there's only one hat/pair of socks! Also I'm pretty sure one of those yellow unis were only practice unis. But you could say they're the grandfather.

I actually know this. I have children in 5th and 7th grade, so I have already had a fairly recent refresher on all of it.

From the beginning of that set in 1972, the A's used the yellow and green pants very very infrequently. (Though Vida Blue did make one high-profile appearance wearing yellow-over-yellow in the 1975 All-Star Game.) Like the Indians, Orioles, and Phillies, the A's abandoned their dark pants after only a few outings; the team eventually used only the white pants, and so wound up with three uniforms.

The A's never even experimented with green-over-yellow or yellow-over-green, which would have been the equivalent of the the Pirates' unsightly black-over-yellow and yellow-over-black combinations. Unlike the embarassing garb sported by the Pirates, the A's uniforms actually looked sharp and dignified.

I'd say that the A's were the only team wearing pullover and/or beltless uniforms who ever looked really beautiful. While the 1977-1984 Pirates represent an all-time low in uniforms, the Pirates' attractive 1971-1976 set merits an honourable mention on the beauty list. And I bestow a near-miss on the White Sox' 1976-1981 uni (which, I think, had belted pants). That set would have been good had the collars gone completely around the shirt, and had it not included the blue-over-blue option.

[Packid]

Someone posted on the New Era Cap Talk forum that this year's ring ceremony jerseys will be the script "Giants" logo in gold, much like the previous two. The hat will stay the same with a new patch.

therock:

That wordmark and overall design scheme were great. But the uniform got much better when they corrected it to button-down/belt.

[krunyan]

Either one of those is better than the current. Although I'm not a huge fan of the neck stripes on the button up.

[Gothamite]

Neck or sleeve stripes. They're both hideous on a button-up.

[Diamond Dweller]

How can anyone say that dated pullover looks better than the Tigers' current road?

Somebody please tell me those 6" wide sleeve stripes aren't correct.

Like all discussions on this board, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The 70s were definitely a decade of pushing the limits on uniform style, teams like the Padres, Indians, and Astros, tried new looks as well. In fact, the 1975 Astros did receive criticism for the unique look they came up with. As always, how a team performs does reflect on how a uniform is perceived. The 1977-1984 Pirates were usually contenders, and had a number of memorable players. The Oregon reference is interesting, but I would note the Ducks have yet to capture the ultimate prize in their sport.

[Gothamite]

Do they need to win "the ultimate prize", though?

The Brewers' 80s throwback is much beloved, though they never did.
