Another 17-year-old with no life. Man, we bombed Iran last night. Ukraine is involved in a three-year war. Hamas (hint: that's not a minor league team) and Israel are at each other's throats. They are still rioting in Los Angeles. THERE ARE BIGGER ISSUES IN LIFE! GROW THE F UP!


It is a minor gripe, calm down!

Also, the political board exists.

literally all sports have rules in place to help that distinguish “lights” vs “darks”.

Reading comprehension not your strong suit? I said it wasn't as bad as that. I was illustrating an example of how some people see color.

The point is it’s not like this at all. I said comparing, which is what you did. I did not say you said the football game is an exact representation. Once again, baseball is an entirely different game than football. It should be clear who is running to a base vs who is catching or fielding a ball. You also have the audio. You weren’t actually confused. You just wanted to let us know how you see the game.

think it's bullshite that both teams wore white pants and dark tops. For those us with colorblindness (especially if protan), it's a nightmare. Give me contrast. White tops, pinstripes, road grays, literally anything to help distinguish between the teams.


Well we’re playing for a championship from here on out so you know what that means

The gloves are a giveaway. If they're wearing gloves, they're the team playing defense. If not, they're the team at bat. No more nightmare. /s


Odd that he hasn’t addressed this yet. I get the issue if it’s football or basketball, but it’s completely different for baseball. If you can’t tell the difference between the guy pitching, the guy catching, and the guy holding the bat, not sure if you can really be helped. That’s what’s on the screen 80% of the time. Plus the score bug has a graphic literally showing you where the baserunners are.

So you’re not a racist, go into politics instead of uniform selection.

Normally I can’t stand when people whine about uniforms but this guy has a legit reason. He just wants to know what’s going on in the game. There’s plenty of “baws” on here who will post about how they only like how the tops don’t match the socks or some such shite.

What did you do when teams only wore white or gray?

How is this any different?

I kinda did though. Multiple times I said either I knew who was batting, or that I could tell the obvious. I further clarified that I’m talking about wide angle shots, Birds Eye views etc. Let me be clear: I understand the game of baseball, I know rules, I know who is on base and who is not. But when they are standing next to each other those jerseys look the same color to me. Yes I can read and see “Tigers” and know who is playing. But on a wider shot zoomed out it’s hard to tell is who is who. That’s all. That’s it. Extremely minor gripe, and a problem that does not happen frequently because generally sports have uniform rules to prevent these scenarios.

One is lighter and one is darker. It’s easy for me to tell. If both teams wear white it’s harder. If both teams wear gray it’s harder.

Check the little arrow on the TV...last night when it pointed up...that means it's the Top of the inning. That was CC last night.

Tonight...even if they are wearing the same uniforms...LSU will be batting when the arrow is pointing up.

I hope this helps. Winny arse LSU fan.

Interesting, I am not color blind but I would have thought the difference from gray and white would be difficult.

I have some color blindness. You aren’t color blind, you’re just blind.

So you can’t tell the difference between the guys running in a distinct base path with HELMETS on and the guys with GLOVES on their hands??

Well at least you didn't have to see the crowd dressed in mostly orange in honor of the President.

I’m sorry about your condition.
I guess color blindness is like watching on black and white TV. I used to watch sports on black and white TV and I had absolutely no trouble figuring out who was who.

I figured that since the heat index at 1:30 is going to be 111, they both wanna wear their lighter colors this afternoon.
