Sorry if this is old news, I just got these in my e-mail.

Doesn't that look like the ball is landing in bird crap?

It seems that these batting practice jerseys always have to be very gaudy, I think they should make them with just a simple official NL or AL logo on the chest, I'd be more apt to buy one of those than these.

I kinda like the "splash down" logo. But the uniform's??? My gosh why didn't they just go with a retro Giants uniform in home and away versions. U-G-L-Y

i like the logos, but the colors are very tacky.

 

You do realize that they always use the colors of the team hosting the game, right? This was not an arbitrary color choice.

Does that make them any less tacky?

right, but they always suck. The Pirate's colors are black and gold, so what do they do? Make a hideous gold BP jersey, not a cool black one. So it goes for every team

lol this makes twice in the past 3 years that we have to endure orange All-Star game uniforms.

 

Well it's only for HR Derby and batting practice. Thankfully they wear their team jerseys for the game.

That orange is hideous.

 

Brutal. I guess they have some study that says there will be more total jersey sales by marketing them to to the home team's fans, who are more likely to be excited about the game, as a whole, than the national fan base.

I always liked the teams wearing their respective teams jerseys instead of those lame All-Star jerseys.

 

Bring back the old days, please.

You do realize they wear these jerseys only for the HR Derby and other festivities, and do indeed wear their appropriate team jersey for the game itself, right?

WHY ORANGE?

 

Seriously, this is the second straight year we have had orange jerseys.

 

The MLB colors are Red White and Blue...

 

WHERE THE HELL DID ORANGE COME FROM?

 

Correct me if I'm wrong, but theres only two damn teams in the league with orange in their jerseys. WTH.

We wore yellow (Pittsburgh) last year, orange (Detriot) two years ago.

When I was at the Cubs/Rangers series, some guy behind me during the Thursday game was wearing a National league all-star jersey. He just looked so out of place.

Well, I would hope so.... but even then, why bother with those silly jersey in the first place?

 

I'm just saying, for ALL the festivites and the game itself, just wear your respected ballclub jersey.
