phutmasterflex Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 http://espn.go.com/s...rs-stripes-capsI was reading through this and something popped into my head.I remember as a kid there was this one game where the A's wore a red, white and blue version of their home uniforms. It was all white, with the lettering in navy with the outline in red. I want to believe it was July 4, 2001 but I can't seem to find any visual evidence online.I remember watching that game on TV and I hope I just didn't imagine it. Does anyone have any idea if pictures or videos from this game (I assume that's the date) exists online?(The A's also had a SGA giving away caps that looked like the one the players wore that day.) Below is a custom version of it. Go A's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 I remember photos from that game being posted here, but man, that was forever ago. It definitely was a July 4tg game, though I'm unsure of the year. Those uniforms looked fantastic.

Gothamite Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Here are the relevant pages, from the other thread which was resurrected in response to this one:Only two times they were worn. I'd like to see all teams do something very similar to this but we all know this may never happen.I know there was a picture posted on these boards somewhere - want to say it was a pitcher in motion.

pianoknight Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 This is cool. At first, I looked at the cap and was subconsciously thinking that it was an Angels alternate. I had no idea Oakland did this. 5th in NAT. TITLES | 2nd in CONF.
