Brave-Bird 08 Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 So, the Braves have not followed the uniform pattern that was set out at the beginning of the year. According to the organization, white uniforms are for weekday home games (Mon-Thurs), red uniforms are for Friday games, ivory uniforms are for Saturday and Sunday, and obviously grey and navy blue are switch-at-will for road games.But, the Braves wore white uniforms for Friday's game. They then wore the ivory uniforms for Saturday, then switched to the regular whites for the Jackie Robinson Sunday game.Today (It's Wednesday), they are wearing the ivory uniforms again.

And for Jackie Robinson Day a lot of teams wore their regular jerseys that would normally wear alternates, maybe because it was easier to just order the #42 jerseys in the regular jerseys. And maybe they'll wear the ivory uniforms for weekday day games too, but didn't mention it at the beginning of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottysprings Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 In regards to the Boston throwback caps, I think this is a scenario where it would've behooved the Red Sox to go fauxback and put a solid red "B" on the cap. The style of cap they worn in 1912 with the lower crown and smaller bill looks good in solid white, but doesn't translate well to the more blocky oversized 59Fifty.

Gothamite Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Maybe nobody. But if anyone wants to, why shouldn't they sell them?There was a similar situation with the Padres throwbacks a couple years ago, which were solid navy. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database!

Joshawaggie Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Again, why not?I have to somewhat agree, however, just the fact that it's still the same price as a regular MLB hat for a blank one just is a bit cringe worthy. Who knows, maybe that'll be the next trend, blank expensive New Era caps. Pick a color, any color! @josh_j12 CFA- Fargo Bobcats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Un:censored:ingreal.http://shop.mlb.com/product/index.jsp?productId=12752034&cp=1452345.1452682.707973Its called supply and demand. If people want them and their able to sell them, then good for them.I'm sure a plain white cap doesn't cost too much more to produce than a logo-ed cap.Unless "Boston" or "Red Sox" is written on the back(or somewhere else on the cap), It'd be pointless to market them as Sox throwback caps, though.

ARTnSocal Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Here is an article about the Yankees' throwback caps: http://www.nj.com/ya...rce=twitterfeed>>>>So it appears they'll be wearing this 1912 Highlander uniform but in gray to match the hat.From what I remember from watching Ken Burns 'Baseball, the hats worn back then were more of a lower crown and curved rim, not 5950 style such as this. The documentary had photos from an exhibition game in April 1913 when Ebbets Field opened and the Dodgers first game there was the exhibition against the Yankees who had just switched from 'Highlanders'....Dunno why there's a white jersey being shown rather than gray, I found that odd.
