Cianfrocco Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 A topic that has been discussed numerous times here, I have finally gotten around to uploading my attempt to chronicle the uniform history of the Arizona Diamondbacks.http://dbacks.freehostia.com/There is still a lot more research that needs to be done, but I feel I am at a point where I can call it "close enough," though I doubt it will ever be completely finished. If I ever had the time or motivation, I would love to keep a list of the uniform combos worn in each game, but 162 games a year for 10 years is a bit much. Let me know what you guys think, if there is anything that needs to be fixed, or just general comments. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruColor Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Haven't been through the whole thing yet, but one thing to keep in mind - the original D-Backs' home unis (through 2006) were Cream, not White. And the caps they wore were also Cream: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad that a team that's been around 11 seasons has so many uniforms to document, but my Astros are guilty of the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cianfrocco Posted May 22, 2008 Author Share Posted May 22, 2008 I got around to updating the site, as I added a 2002 game-by-game breakdown. My ultimate goal is to have this for all years, but the amount of time that goes into it, plus the availability of finding info for older games will determine how far I get.http://dbacks.freehostia.com/2002_games.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrivnak Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Nice site. Very informative. Tons of info.One suggestion, though: I would recommend adding the navigation to the bottom of the page as well (at least for the year-by-year bit). It's a bit of a pain to have to scroll back up to the top to go to the next page. Or better yet, include a "back" and "next" to scroll through the pages.Cheers!

Thanks!I miss arizona's great jerseys that they wore back in 2001...Their red jerseys and red, black, and gold look just don't give them that signature look that they once had...Those Arizona jerseys in black back in the day were some of the best in baseball. They had a southwestern feel with the sleeves and great font and different colors. Those were the days... High Quality Entertainment for the masses.

Cianfrocco Posted October 22, 2008 Author Share Posted October 22, 2008 Sorry to bump an old thread, but I just added a bunch more info with detailed game-by-game breakdowns, now from 2002-2008. There are still some holes, but I have every game from 2005-on. The info from before 2002 is too spotty, so I haven't posted those yet. This is now more like the original idea I had all along for the site, but it will take quite a bit more research to be fully complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tohasbo Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 keep up the good work tho. I was looking for the LONGEST time to find the D-backs uniform history. Now it is pretty much all complete... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amare32 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Nice job on the website.This reminds me of an issue I've been meaning to address ... I bought thru MLB.com an authentic Cool Base jersey in home white, customized w/ Justin Upton's name and number. The jersey features the 10th Anniversary logo on the right sleeve. But the patch on the left sleeve is the 2007 version of the "db" logo, not the one updated for 2008.The "db" patch is nicely stitched on w/ a precise pattern that lookls like this: /\/\/\/\/\/\/\ . It does not appear to be ironed on or affixed w/ adhesive. I'm pretty sure the patch could be removed w/o damaging the jersey.I went to the teamshop at the ballpark to see if they could exchange the jersey or replace the logo, but they say they do not carry the Cool Base jerseys and could not help me. They did have for sale the 2008 version of the "db" logo patch, which I purchased.Being a stickler for authenticity, I have yet to wear the jersey on account of this discrepancy. I would like to find someone who can remove the 2007 "db" patch and replace it w/ the 2008 "db" patch. I would greatly prefer if the 2008 "db" patch could be stitched onto the jersey w/ the same stitching pattern w/ which the 2007 "db" patch was applied.Anyone know of a company that will do this job to MLB specifications? For the $200 or so I've spent already, I don't want a half-assed jersey. I want the real thing.Your recommendations are appreciated. Thanks.

habsfan1 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Oh my goodness. That 1999 turn ahead the clock jersey is an eye burner!Aside from that, very nice job on the website! You certainly didn't leave out anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
