So the baseball uniforms were unveiled today.

This seems like an obvious FanShot, but I've got things to say, being a former baseball player and a decent eye for a good baseball uniform

Home Whites: meh.  I'm not a fan of vests personally, I'd rather there be sleeves.  But it looks like a Nike baseball uniform: too busy, lots of unnecessary piping, a back collar thing that doesn't make any sense.  An I can't tell if tthis one is a vest with a couple shirts or a shirt with piping and black shit in way wrong spots.  either way, it's not good.

Road Grays: Please don't wear pinstriped gray vests with a non-pinstriped gray undershirt.  Green shirt, fine.  Gray, no.  The pinstripes are the lyrics to Mighty Oregon, which is unequivocally cool.  Easily my favorite look of the set, only with a green undershirt.

Green shirts: No.  Just freakin' no.  The Ducks one looks like a weird coaches polo/basketball jersey hybrid with a Ducks logo in the wrong color slapped on top.  The O one?  Never under any circumstances should that be worn in public.  It's a good idea I guess, but simply does not work.

I'd be happy with home pinstriped whites and road solid grays with Ducks and Oregon in the school font on the chest, the numbers we have now (the Joey/hoops numbers) a green or black BP jersey and maybe an alternate Civil War hat with yellow on top, a green bill and a green O.  Maybe a black hat too.  That's it.  But here's to hoping we see more of the whites and grays and we never see those stupid O things.
