I like what Sparky is wearing.

Honestly, the Reds to need to start by wearing an all red cap on the road as well. Maybe designated the black bill as an alternate status until it fades out.

Or, at very least, if having a road cap is so important to them, they need to make a matching batting helmet with a black brim. Half assing is is bull :censored:. A player should look like he is wearing the same uniform whether batting or in the field.

Here are some quick mock-ups of what they might be wearing next month. Very creative idea, but very hard on the eyes.

iD-Backs?

Like for real? This is a thing?

I'm afraid so. Paul Lukas read my mind and said that i D-backs sounds like a new Apple product. They could've been way more creative than that. They could've said D-indietros, which is D-Backs translated into Italian.

Being an Italian-American, I find these to be a little unique and somewhat cool. At the same time they also make me proud of my heritage. It's also refreshing to see two MLB teams honor or recognize Italians.

BUT on the other hand, being a huge baseball fan & baseball uni fan; these are really not appealing to the eye in terms of jersey or uniform aesthetics. I won't lie, they don't look good at all.

You know, they could've went a hell of a lot easier on the eyes and had someone in the traditional sporting color of Italy: blue.

But then again, it'd get at least two thirds of American fans scratching their head saying "but how is blue an Italian color?! Gimme more crappily made pasta with watery tomato sauce!"

Marlins are wearing orange hats, white jerseys against the braves.

Did they finally bust out the orange helmets?

The Brewers & Diamondbacks unveiled the uniforms they'll wear on Italian Night (July 1).

Uni Watch - Brewers & D-Backs

1.) They are the BP template.

2.) Wow, they sure are...colorful.

You know what would have been far more creative, attractive, and... sane? A royal blue jersey with green and red accents. This is just godforsaken. Especially the iD-Backs nonsense.

Regarding the Reds: They're the one team I think that could make pullovers work full-time. They could be like the Stanford of the pro ranks.

For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head. Thats what it looks like to me. Also the flair around the tip of the beak is just flair that fleur de lis have sometimes source I am from NOLA.

No, it's not. First off, italian isn't like english, where you use an s for plural. Secondly, indietro is an adverb. Maybe they could have used schiene, which means back as in the noun, but the D- has no purpose then. Another option would be to use the Diamondback snake noun in italian, which is serpente a sonagli (rattlesnake. Off topic, but rattlesnakes would have been a much better option than diamondbacks when naming the team)

Seeing as how that option sucks, I'm fine with using i D-Backs, because D-Backs is a proper noun(also why I don't mind all of the Noche latina NBA jerseys)

Nonsense. Pullovers are a fine look, as long as Majestic finally learns how to tailor them correctly.

yeah what's with that? Throwbacks look terribly sized.

Pullovers really should be what baseball teams wear as there's no real practical reason for buttons to be on the front of an athletic shirt, but I just think buttons look better.
