However, while this is exciting news to some of baseball’s followers. Truth be told, some fans are just not fans of the City Connects. They feel that it is a little much.
They say, keep it simple. Every team should have two uniforms. One for all home games. And one when the team is out traveling on the road to their opponents; and that’s it.
Yes, fans all have their own ideas as to what is proper uniform etiquette. However, with baseball finally being back in the picture thanks to spring training; whether we personally like the connects or not; something we all can agree on is that life is good because opening day is just around the corner. Here’s to a great 2024 season to all the clubs.
