tp49 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 The Oakland striped socks relates to the issues I have with the Pirates' late 70's early 80's throwbacks they're wearing this year. I saw some of the game yesterday and there were players wearing black striped socks. When those uniforms were worn they were usually worn with yellow stirrups, not black and there were no stripe on the socks to be seen. I have a similar issue with James Loney when the Mets wear their 86 throwbacks in that he wears stirrups (which i like) with orange sanitary socks. The Mets have never worn orange sanitaries ever and it looks so wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the Padres that I most remember, but it's not a good look. Bland color scheme, awful unbalanced wordmark. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

I saw a photo of an Astros player who had the tequila sunrise stripes on his stirrups which I knew weren't 'standard issue' for players at the time. That's what I meant by "unusual" or one-of-a-kind.

I've said it many times...the late 80s brown and orange set is my favorite Padres look. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

cmm Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I turned on the Mets radio pregame show late, but they were interviewing a DBack (probably Chip Hale) and he said they were probably going to tweak their jerseys to make the names and/or numbers more legible. Not sure if this is old news or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damnyoutuesday Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Just saw that Papa Johns commercial that shows the Cleveland Indians doing signs, and it showed them wearing the regular home cap w/ wahoo while wearing their cream alternates. Can anyone tell me when they did this? Sorry, I'm on an iPad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely agree with you. That was my "little league" team back in '96. I think I'm biased to them because of that.

Not sure if this is old news or not. If, by "tweak their jerseys to make the names and/or numbers more legible", they mean "throw the whole thing out and start over", I'm all for it. Otherwise, it's just lipstick on a pig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
