Why are baseball managers the only ones who wear uniforms and other sport coaches don’t?

Is it because of the unwritten rules of baseball?

Lots of player managers back then.

Tradition. Dates back to when there were player/managers.

The same reason basketball coaches wear suits.

Can you imagine Popovich or Andy Reid in uniform?

Larussa used to hit fungoes and Lasorda used to throw batting practice. Would have not been able to in a suit.

They go on the field, 1st/3rd base coaches, mound visits, lineup & pitching changes, arguing calls..

It would have been a crime if Pat Riley and Chuck Daly didn’t wear a suit in today’s NBA of coaching in a long sleeve shirt or fleece jacket lol

I don’t know, but it’s hilarious. They look like old out of shape men in Halloween costumes

Most wear the pants and socks with a cage jacket or pull over. I can’t imagine most managers have actually worn a jersey in a while.
