This is the Brewers, though, so I'm not truly expecting anything attractive involving them to occur in October. They wear those beauties every Fri and Sat at home. It'll be interesting to see what they'll do for the playoffs. Half of Miller Park seems to be wearing royal blue and gold these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 After paying millions and millions of dollars for Yu Darvish and Brandon Morrow to not pitch down the stretch, the Cubs' shirts should probably say "Defend Theo Epstein." ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been rooting on the Brewers and watching these games on the MLB package. My opinion: I believe the current Brewer uniforms are beautiful. However, I love the BiG logo. Simply solution to me is to put the BiG logo on the sleeve as a patch of the current unis and call it a day. The old fauxback uni design, overall, looks very dated. The BREWERS typeset is bad. The royal blue doesn't look as good as the dark blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 19 hours ago, NicDB said: I find the Brewers choice of "Defend MKE" peculiar considering (a.) the Brewers have only ever been identified as "MIL" in the sports world, and (b.) unlike the horrible reach on the Indians shirt, Milwaukee best known nickname (Brew City) can also stand as a reference to the team. 19 hours ago, the admiral said: Maybe they're just very passionate about airport security, I don't know. You see “MKE” around a lot in the past decade. Okay, you've got to look closely on the streetcar. But it's there. MKE has really become the preferred abbreviation that the city uses to refer to itself. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

Gothamite Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 And the Brewers won, setting up a one-game playoff with Chicago for the NL Central title. Where they’ll have to wear their drab modern roads. I hope they wear the throwbacks all the way to the World Championship. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

I'd clarify they usually wore the REGULAR navy alts on Sundays. There have been several weekend home series this season where the fauxbacks were worn all weekend. However, the navy BiG set / hat was worn pretty sparingly this season...not sure why. They wore the heck out of that set last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention that they insisted on using the incorrect BiG logo everywhere on that uniform. Disgraceful.

BJ Sands Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 I can see the Marlins doing what the Brewers are: sticking with the current set while milking a throwback look for all it’s worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proc Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Well, after a season of the Tigers going with the big "D" on the caps, I am hoping for a return to the smaller "D" or at least down size this one a bit. The fan's reaction in Motown to the larger letter on the cap was not well-received at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstroCree Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 What about matching the D on the jersey?I feel like this and the cap should’ve been good for the Tigers but it doesn’t look good at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinsUp1214 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 The solution for the Tigers was always simple - make the old jersey “D” the unified one between the cap and jersey and call it a day. They instead chose the wrong “D” and took it too far by enlarging it on the cap in addition. They went from having my favorite look in the league to a rather awkward one.

MilSox Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Just putting it out there that these are my favorite Brewers scripts of all time and I think they outclass the 1982 scripts in every imaginable way (the home more-so than the road, which is basically this minus the tail). I hope they're considered as part of a long overdue rebrand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
