| St Louis Cardinals unveil new 3rd jersey, red caps/belt on road (Posted on 11/16/12 at 5:35 am)
The Cardinals will unveil this jersey at a news conference today at 10am CT. Watch Live Here It will be worn for Saturday home games during the 2013 season.
quote:
By introducing an alternate jersey for the 2013 season with a script “St. Louis” on the front, the Cardinals are breaking from tradition by revisiting it. For the first time in 80 years, the Cardinals will have a jersey that features the name of the city and not the ballclub.
More photo's at the press release for the full unveil later this morning.
quote:
“Yes, it’s traditional. And if you ask me should we stay in that elite company of having home whites and road grays, I would say we should, but … ” President Bill DeWitt III said. “Look at this (third) jersey. I see it and think, ‘We’ve got to wear that thing.’ ”
Gas House Gang last wore St Louis on the front in 1934, very similar to these. Dizzy Dean! Beautiful in my highly biased opinion. ETA: Watch Live Link at 10am CT

It is a cool jersey, but I'm a traditionalist. Your home jersey should have your club name on it and your road uni's should have your city on it. That's the way it's always been in baseball, and that's the way it should be! .... Here's looking at you Texas Rangers

I bought one like this a few years back -- When I wear it around N.O., I get tons of comments and approving nods.

Not even a Cards fan and those look pretty sharp. I like it.

I read that they are talking about wearing red hats on the road also. They currently do this in spring training I think.

This is how I feel as well. Very good looking jersey though. I'm not real big on adults wearing jerseys, though I've made an exception for a baby blue Willie McGee jersey that I wore to a game a couple years ago. But this Cards jersey, and the Pelicans jersey also in this thread, have me rethinking my stance, at least for baseball.

Dizzy Dean and the Gas House Gang approve.

Major points for a Gas House Gang reference. Of the "traditional" MLB franchises, how can the Cardinals not be your favorite? (Or at least, not the least hated?) Great jerseys.

Trevor Rosenthal showing off that new 3rd jersey like a boss! Red hat and red belt now on the road, will on occasion wear the blue but for the most part it's gone.

Not that there was ever anything wrong with the blue caps, but in general I support the idea of 1 team, 1 cap. IMO, this is addition by subtraction.
