sportstar1212 Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I was watching highlights of the Giants-A's game yesterday and I noticed that the Giants were wearing their alternate orange billed caps with their home whites creams. Anyone know why they were doing this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know why they were doing this?It's their Sunday cap. They wear it every Sunday game, home and away. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kramerica Industries Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I feel like there's supposed to be some grand irony to double-knit actually being LIGHTER than COOLBASE jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But everyone else except the Yankees sucked it up and went to COOLBASE. I'd be curious to see how many other teams feel the same way. I know there are players who choose to wear the doubleknits, so there are definitely some who prefer it. Go Astros!Go Texans!Go Rockets!Go Javelinas!

HolyStroke Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Do the Brewers still wear the BiG uniforms? If so, on what day of the week? Or is it just at random? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sportstar1212 Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Turns out they haven't worn them at all this year. Weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 But do the Twins' throwbacks account for something like half their merchandise sales? The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCall Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 I did see highlights like last week or the one before of the Twins in their throwbacks, I believe. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 And now that I recall, the Brewers wore theirs last month. Aoki was in the classic blue and gold when he got his inside-the-park home run.

DarthBrett Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 The Twins have worn their cream alts twice so far in '12; on 4/23 and again on 5/14. The Brewers have also worn their throwback alts twice this year; on 4/20 (Aoki's inside-the-park homer) and also on 5/18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The MIN & MIL throwbacks are both doubleknit. Milwaukee only wears COOLBASE for the rest of their sets. Minnesota's road greys are also doubleknit, while the blue alts and the whites are COOLBASE.

Old School Fool Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Speaking of Twins, I was playing Ken Griffey Jr. on Nintendo 64, and the Twins broke out the "Dairy Queen" alternate.Weird thing about the game, is that the Twins are wearing regular white pants and the Tigers, whom they are facing, have an orange billed cap with orange D.I love that Twins jersey and I wish they gave it more of chance. I think it could become the Home alternate... *ducks* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
