Wally1912 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.ReynoldsPirates wore wrong socks, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOldRoman Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 We gotta get the O's back in orange socks full-time. O-wn the color.Yes, and tell the Giants to get rid of their orange jerseys and orange billed caps. If they want to wear an alt, it should be black. The problem will only get worse next year when the Marlins come out in what will likely be garish bastardizations of the Orioles uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 No, they can't; all that orange is too much awesome, or epic, or #WINNING, or something. But yeah, they should. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leopard88 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 We gotta get the O's back in orange socks full-time. O-wn the color.Agreed. I love that they have really reemphasized the orange in recent years (orange uniform script, orange-billed caps full time). Orange stirrups would just add to it.

Yes.Ditch the orange jersey. Big f-ing NO.I too believe the Orioles to be orange with black and vice versa for the Giants, but their orange alt just looks too damn sweet with the cream pants and the black cap. And I hate the Giants. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGivens87 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Correct me if I'm wrong, but did the O's even have the "Baltimore" script on the road jersey in 1971? I thought they ditched it in favor of the regular "Orioles" script. A large cheese pizza, just for me.New England's source for soccer newsAnd hey, I made it to ESPN!

Gothamite Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 According to Okrand, the Orioles wore the city name on their road grays through 1973. http://exhibits.baseballhalloffame.org/dressed_to_the_nines/uniforms.asp?league=AL&city=Baltimore&lowYear=1970&highYear=&sort=year&increment=9 The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database!

Legend Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 I love how it seems so many people are in love with these A's jerseys, bright yellow, but people hate the all orange? And all red? I'm not saying everyone on here, just alot of what I've seen overall, that idiot at uniwatch has a chub for these A's alts but hates anything orange. I like em both, but a bright color is a bright color. Not alot different between the two.I also noticed that in my opinion the AL West has the best set of alternate jerseys of all the divisions. Red Angels/Rangers, teal Mariners, and yellow/green A's. If they had one team with a plain jersey, I'd give them a tie with the NL West, but since the NL West has one team without any real alternate, the Dodgers, can't give it to them. Same amount of teams with cool alts. Giants orange is awesome, Padres camo unis are great, Rockies purple/black, and the D-Backs red/black. I'm not counting throwbacks, just strictly alternates.

There's only one team who wears an orange jersey, and for the people who do complain about that, I think it's more about orange being a secondary Giants color (when they don't even have a black alternate) than about the orange itself. And I've heard people say a lot of positive things about those jerseys.And who complains about red jerseys? I don't hear much of that.
