The Phillies have created a buzz in the uni-verse the past two weeks by debuting their new maroon-trimmed powder blue throwback alternate uniforms for a pair of Thursday home games. The throwback designs aren't perfect -- the jerseys should have been zippered, not button-fronts, and the Phils didn't spring for matching maroon undershirts -- but it's still great to see the old powder blues on the diamond.
Predictably, this has led to many fans saying, "They should go back to those full time!" And who can blame them? It's a fun look:
These @Phillies throwback uniforms are wonderful, but for the love of god, get the players some matching base layers.
