McCall Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I'm convinced Steve Berthiaume is a member here, because everytime the Blue Jays, Orioles or even the Mets blue jerseys from last year, are shown on BBTN, he always comments on the "fantastic new uniforms", and the other guys awkwardly continue on with the highlights like they're wanting to say, "dude, they're uniforms, get over it". https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raysox Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I hate that the Orioles still use the detailed bird logo. Worth noting. @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aawagner011 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 What was the occasion? Something to do with the 100th anniv. of Fenway? I hadn't heard about this event prior to tonight like I knew about the Yankees/Sox game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsox Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I hadn't either. All I know is they should go back to wearing those Sox. They'd go better with the road uniforms than the solid red ones. And maybe consider going back to that sleeve design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't heard about this event prior to tonight like I knew about the Yankees/Sox game.AP Story The teams wore 1936 throwback uniforms. That year, the A's - then in Philadelphia - sold Jimmie Foxx to the Red Sox. His daughter, Nanci Foxx Canaday, was at the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Those A's throwbacks make me very thankful for Charlie O. Finley's crazy color ideas.Anyone know if the Red Sox will also be doing this for the other five charter members of the AL? It would be great to see some old-time Tigers roads, the O's in Browns unis, the Twins in Senators unis, and the Indians in, oh, let's say mid-seventies bloodclots.As for the White Sox, well, Carlton Fisk played his first game for them in 1981 right back at Fenway... just saying.

Pharos04 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 and the Sox of course trying to make a quick buck (or $260) off the different jerseys. Although they are quirky and different enough that...damn you Sox ownership!!MLB Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather see older uniforms which don't exist as much in pictures as some of the '70s crap that teams like to forget they wore.Also, strange to see Fisk playing in Wrigley. Obviously one of the exhibition games in the spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnum Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Were the Philadelphia A's caps that dark? One site has the cap as a royal blue and the other as the dark navy pictured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gehrig27 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Even though the Sox should have gone with navy sleeves, and the A's should have been a more royal blue, I thought both teams looked great. I wish Boston would keep their old socks as part of the current uniform though...their just too good looking. http://yankeesuniformdatabase.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportstar1212 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Those socks are awesome. They kinda reminded me of the Cards socks though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HolyStroke Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Are the A's going to be wearing these unis again? Seems likely since they had matching helmets. I know they're doing throwback Thursday's so maybe we'll see the home version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't look accurate, even if it actually is.Probably because you're so used to seeing the "modern" script. I'm fairly cetain it's accurate to 1936, though, it's not like the Sox to drop the ball on stuff like this.Edit: couldn't get a screen grab, but one of the A's (Kila Ka'Aihue, I think) was wearing the regular A's batting helmet for at least one at-bat.

I seem to remember them playing on WGN in the late 80's in the summertime. They did it on a mutual off day when both teams were in town. Go Astros!Go Texans!Go Rockets!Go Javelinas!

Their 5/26/88 game was a 15-inning 6-6 tie.SourceThen they made a big deal about some minor-leaguer playing in the 1994 game (even though the game was played on 4/7, Opening Day was a few days earlier...Tuffy Rhodes hit 3 homers against the Mets but the Cubs lost anyway on 4/4): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Amazing the difference between Michael Jordan 1994 and Michael Jordan 2012. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
