soxkrazy Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 MLB.com has the jerseys with the stars. Anyone see the caps yet? I'm a bit perturbed I bought the Red Sox all-star patch cap before this gimmick was announced. Oh well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fufkin Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Can't speak for the rest of the all-stars on the team, but the back of Jeter's jersey this evening did not have the stars on the back.(Edit: None for Granderson either.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC in Da House w/o a Doubt Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Don't have a pic, but the stars on the Cubs jerseys appeared to be mostly red with a teeenyy bit of gold in the middle. But the stars on the hat were completely gold. Any other stars on the jerseys doing something similar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YessSir32 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Verlander has got his on. Can't see the stars though, only the patch.http://scores.espn.go.com/mlb/photos?gameId=310705103&photoId=1407644 Detroit Falcons (NABL) | Detroit Gears (UFL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bouj Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Lukas said this morning that LA Dodger P Clayton Kershaw took the stars off of his hat, used a blue marker to color over the residue, and asked the clubhouse attendant to take the stars off of his jersey. He'll pitch tomorrow, so we'll see about the jersey then. Go Astros!Go Texans!Go Rockets!Go Javelinas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubsFanBudMan Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I figured there would be some minor revolts, and fully expected the Yankees to be the source of one of them. It's times like these when I appreciate the Yankees and their ability to stand up to MLB. (However, I can't give them a full pass, because they've abused their normally classy unis with giant stadium farewell patches on the back of their caps, giant black blotches over their heart for George, etc.) At any rate, more teams should follow suit. These gimmicks should be rejected just as some NFL teams rejected the arbitrary C-star patch.I believe I joked earlier in the thread about a Mike Quade All-Star Cubs cap. Unbelieveably, he was wearing one last night, as if his performance had earned him that spot. Show up to the game and enjoy the experience, but put that hat away.

AnythingChicago Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I was at the Cubs-Nats game yesterday. We didn't have a good view of the Cubs dugout at all, so I can't verify if what DC in Da House w/o a Doubt is true or not. But I had a great view of Tyler Clippard running out of the bullpen, and he had 2 gold stars on either side of the MLB logo on the back of his cap, and the MLB All Star logo on the side. It actually looked way better than it did on the computer screen. I actually really like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powersurge Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Oh what a surprise...they change something about a uni and the entire CCSL board automatically hates it. What a shocker. Way to be open mindedIts a miniscule change at best. To be honest its not as bad as the NFL Captain's Star logo by a long shot. I honestly don't see what the big deal is about.

SilverNRed Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 I absolutely hated this idea when I first read about it (here) but I'm watching the Angels game now and the stars on the back of Kendrick's jersey actually look pretty cool. It's a pretty subtle change.The hat is another story; it just looks too busy with two big stars jammed back there.It's a cool concept. Fix it next year by just leaving the stars on the back of the jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phutmasterflex Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 It looks ok on the jerseyMy friend tells me that New Era (or some retailers) are offering the stars for the caps at no charge. I didn't bother to remember the details because it's just felt that you can easily get from Michaels or something Go A's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fix it next year by just leaving the stars on the back of the jersey.Yeah the stars on the jersey are alright, still not on board with it.Neither was Jered Weaver who, unlike Kendrick, didn't have the jersey stars, hat stars, or ASG logo on the hat.Another question, are these stars going to be present in the actual game on Tuesday? | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
