      Yeah. Now, the color may still end up being a little off (time will tell on that), but taking one still image from a video doesn't prove anything on its own, especially with the way light reflects off jersey logos and lettering this year.

      For example, here's a screengrab from another video on their Facebook page, showing a brighter red:


      Actually, because I'm bored before heading to bed, here's a GIF of that Baez clip. You can see how the reds change as he moves and picks up different ambient light.

        Yep this is exactly what I was getting at. Great job showing this.

          I believe that is due to the 'shiny threads' in the patching that uniforms have, and do alter the color depending on lighting. It is a different material than the uniform or armband and reflects the light differently.

          I have Red Sox jerseys from a lot of different eras. All official, and the red gets dark or light depending on lighting.

          Example:






          Even Millenium commented on his stream not too long ago, that the threaded logos now have that 'reflection' property in the light.

            Anyone thinking the franchise videos this week will show a lot more uniforms for us to peek at the colors? The last two weeks with the created uniforms of DD and the minor league uniforms of RTTS felt like we barely got to see any MLB uniforms.

              Caught these shots from the rivalries videos on the Show Facebook page. One from the Red Sox video and one from the Yankees video. They have to be taken from different builds of the game, you can really see the difference between the red and the "maroon."

                  Really hope this is an old build, otherwise Jays red alternate wasnt touched... WAY WAY too dark.

                    It's another trailer taken from various builds. In the first shot of the Astros orange the jersey is way too dark, then in the next clip they are much brighter.

                      Love the red helmet though definitely too dark but clearly from different builds so I'm not alarmed yet. In the same video I saw the Rangers red caps looked brighter too and the Nats helmets too.

                        In yet another disappointment for Rangers fans, it looks like you still get a blue baselayer including socks at home with red hats. Looks like it'll be yet another year where I can't wear red hats with home white because you can't select a red baselayer.

                              In the blog video today when the Astros are playing in Arlington. Pause the video and you'll see it. Look at the Rangers 2nd baseman. Blue socks, red hats.

                                Ah... shame too because it's an easy fix. They need to duplicate the white jersey as an alternate with the red baselayer. I'm sure someone will say it can't be done but it can be done because it was done with the Indians navy alternate in The Show 17... that Indians jersey is in the game twice, once with a red baselayer and once with a navy baselayer so yes it can definitely be done.
