Perhaps one of the reasons the Dodgers (my team) and the Yankees have hats and uniforms that are iconic and recognized all over the world by fans and non-fans alike is that they seemingly have changed very little over the years. That said, I remember fondly the summer - it seems like one summer but it was probably more than one - when the Padres broke out the ugly mustard yellow and brown uniforms and the White Sox sore the long sleeves and shorts, like a city softball team. Whither Greg Luzinski?

Part of the charm of baseball is nostalgia; things like white at home with the name of the team (Yankees) and grey on the road with the name of the city (New York). Yankees have resisted putting names of players on the uniforms. I hope they resist this stupidity too - Arnold Tilden
