METS TO WEAR NEW PINSTRIPE HOME UNIFORM IN 2010The New York Mets today announced they will wear a new pinstripe home uniform next season inspired by the early years of the franchise. The design combines new and old elements of Mets uniforms. The Mets created the retro uniform following research and positive responses to the jerseys the 1969 World Champion Mets wore during their 40th anniversary celebration in August. The natural color and pinstripes were staples of the original Mets uniform when the team debuted in 1962. The Mets will also continue to wear their white uniform at home with the black jerseys as an alternate.
Tough to see the difference from the photo. I wish they would just get rid of any other home uniforms and make the pinstripe their only home uniform and the grey NEW YORK as the only road uniform.
This is all about money. Teams come up with new uniforms so they can sell them. Tradition takes a backseat to profit.

Fight the Power, Sign a Slugger!

Classically, any modern competitive baseball team has at least three guys who can hit for moderate power. Look at the previous years when the Mets have been competitive: a healthy Delgado, Wright,…
