The five best uniform changes of the last 20 - 美國職棒

1. Tampa Bay Rays

The Rays drop the "Devil" and the Triple-A quality uniforms and make the
World Series the next fall. Coincidence? Well, their talent and bullpen had a
lot to do with it, but the Rays finally getting with the program after 10
years of looking like a MS Paint project gone wrong didn't hurt.

2. Chicago White Sox

Though the White Sox passed on the retro ballpark fad to build the
unremarkable Comiskey Park II, they launched the movement to re-adopt lost
classics when getting dressed. Was it a result of a desire to market to the
Los Angeles Raiders and Kings crowd? Perhaps, but at least it put an end to
the weird days of playing in shorts and jerseys more suited for 16-inch
softball.

3. Seattle Mariners

While I still admire the very AL-looking trident logo, there's no question
the M's nailed their compass logo when they introduced it in the early '90s.
It's a classic look for a team that was born in 1977 and features the best
use of teal from the color's crazy popularity boom (which is, to say,
sparing).

4. Philadelphia Phillies

I love me some Mike Schmidt in maroon and powder blue as much as the next
Meech, but the Phillies' current look is a wonderful callback to the
franchise's earlier days. Clean and concise, the Fightins' seamlessly blend
into the traditional East Coast look.

5. Arizona Diamondbacks

The D-backs have a number of things working against them. They were born out
of an expansion, must adhere to a desert theme that doesn't appeal to a
majority of sane people and are named after a snake. Their odds of looking
goofy are high.

And yet I think the sedona red look that Arizona has been wearing for a few
seasons makes for one of the better kits in the league. The jerseys are
distinct without employing a logo or colors best left for jewelry stores in
Old Town Scottsdale.
