Bouj Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I know this was brought up back in mid-May, but the Astros started wearing the brick caps with their regular gray roadies now almost every game. They also wear brick undershirts instead of black when they wear them (the socks are still black, though)...And the Astros have been wearing the road grays quite a bit this year. Finally. I'm assuming this has much to do with Drayton selling the team.The trend is grey for road day games, brick for road night games, all season long. The hat thing started last month.

jake22 Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I know i'm a little late but man how I love seeing the brewers in the mustard colored uniforms for the first time, they look amazing. They should have a regular alternate uni that is this color. I only think it looks good with white pants though, grey pants would not look so great.

They should rock that color more often, adds so much character to their identity. Quote "You are nothing more than a small cancer on this message board.

njmeadowlanders Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 No room for the patch on the sleeves, so now it's a badge?Yeah, saw that on Sportscenter...odd placement but I guess if they were hellbent on not moving any other element on their sleeves where else would it have gone? The Cards has it as a sleeve patch: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cards has it as a sleeve patch:Because the Cardinals don't have any sleeve patches.Btw, both teams wore Joplin HS team caps during pregame and then swapped hats with the Joplin baseball players when they took the field. A player went to each position. It was pretty cool to see. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shumway Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I'm not 100% sure, but from what I could see on MLB Network's highlights, it looked like all of the Rays were sporting he high striped socks today.Well played, Tampa (if this was in fact the case) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmac Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Why didn't KC put the patch on the other side above the K, which is way lower down? I think that would have been way better. https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raysox Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I want to say they all did, normally if one person wears them, they all do. Even BJ Upton.I love this look, the Cardinals also look good. Classic. @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't want to drop either of the sleeve patches.(Anything to see the best uniforms in Brewers history, eh? )The Yankees also did that with the Steinbrenner patch last season, even though, I believe, the right sleeve was open. There was already one on the left.And some of the Cardinals have been showing the socks the last couple games to "help" break out of the funk and skid the team was on. (some even cut lines in their hair ala Yadi. Looked weird seeing Ryan Theriot with em.) But hey, seems to have helped. They've won both games since starting this. Also, Holliday's pants were too big to stay hiked up, so he's wearing Red Schoendnist's pants. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBGKon Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Baltimore and Pittsburgh will be wearing these tonight:Both are from 1971. Just curious, but is the gold wrong on the Pirates throwback? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruColor Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Both are from 1971. Just curious, but is the gold wrong on the Pirates throwback?A friend and I have been trying to figure this out. The Pirates - and we believe it was between 1970 and 1976 - wore a darker Gold ("Old Gold") for their uniforms, as opposed to the more Yellow used in their logos. The exact shade has been difficult to nail down, but I think that the graphic I produced for my site is accurate: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Hard to tell from that photo, but the Pirates did use a shade darker than the customary athletic gold.EDIT: n/m, ColorWerx to the rescue.

leopard88 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Not that you would know since only Mark Reynolds wore his pants cuffs above his shoetops, but the Orioles wore the wrong socks last night. Reynolds had black stirrups (couldn't find a picture), but the '71 Orioles wore orange stirrups.
