As for not wearing the black alts on a non-Friday since the 2012 wild card game, I don't recall them ever wearing them on a non-Friday before last night. Old story here, but I do remember one Sunday night game in 2013 when they did indeed wear black. If I can find evidence, I'll update you for sure.

They can though because there is no hard or fast rule. But for a playoff game, MLB might have been able to exert more influence than for a regular season game in Arlington.

SilverBullet1929 Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I'm one adamant that a rule limiting alternate jerseys will never happen in MLB but that Angels-Rangers pic tells my brain that if it ever did happen, the limits should be on the road team more than anything. I feel like the Angels are the team "in the wrong" in that pic. Let the Rangers do their occasional "red day" and introduce some color into their uniforms but the road team should be the one forced to be the more subdued, more neutral looking team. Overused road alts seem to be more of a problem than the occasional home alternate meant to provide some variety at home ballparks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't expect it to be a problem when Cleveland's at home, seeing they'd likely wear their whites I would guess, but in Toronto will Cleveland budge and go road greys to avoid royal/navy? If it comes to it I hope they do, but of course if I had my way it'd be white vs. grey all the way no matter who's home or away. Indians typically go with what the starting pitcher that day prefers. Trevor Bauer seems to like the traditional home/away, while the other starters have gone with the navy alts quite a bit. I would expect navy for Game 1, white for Game 2.

BigEd76 Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Anyone else notice the Dodgers' "RESPECT" shirts after clinching have a blue ribbon while the mens t-shirts being sold on MLB.com have a red one? (The toddler and preschool ones have the blue ribbon, so I'm not sure why they went red for the other....?) Dodgers.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FinsUp1214 Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 With the Nats out, we're guaranteed two blue-primary teams in the World Series again. Thankfully each set is either really great or really good, so the matchup will be nice either way (as well as two classic looks). However from a purely aesthetic standpoint, I think the best one would be Indians/Dodgers. Navy/Red vs. Royal/White/splash of Red I think will be more contrasted than the other possibilities would be. Just looking at each one: CLE/LAD - Navy/Red v. Royal/White/Splash of Red CLE/CHC - Navy/Red v. Royal/Red TOR/LAD - Royal/White/Splash of Red v. Royal/White/Splash of Red TOR/CHC - Royal/White/Splash of Red v. Royal/Red That all said...I still want Indians/Cubs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FiddySicks Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 If the Jays get past the Indians, I REALLY hope they bust these out for their first home game. Dare to dream, but that would be such a great look. On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.)
