(Yankees make a horrible play, the crowd responds)

WEST: (leaving) Well, enjoy the game. (beat -- to Elaine) I think you better take off that Orioles cap.

ELAINE: (thinking he's joking) Yeah. I better!

WEST: No, no, no. Seriously. You're in the owner's box, and I don't think it's a good idea.

ELAINE: You're not serious.

WEST: Yes, yes, yes, I am!

ELAINE: Well, did he say that?

WEST: No, no, but he gave me the seats. I don't think he'd like it if you wore an Orioles cap.

ELAINE: Well maybe you should ask him!

WEST: I don't have to ask him! Now are you gonna take the hat off or not?

ELAINE: No! I don't have to take it off, why should I take it off? This is ridiculous!!

GEORGE: Just take the cap off.

ELAINE: George, we are at a baseball game! This is America!

WEST: Look. Either you take the cap off, or you'll have to leave.

ELAINE: Well, I don't care, I'm not taking it off.

GEORGE: Just take the cap off!

ELAINE: No!

(a fight starts between Elaine and George; Elaine ends up taking off

GEORGE'S hat, and throwing it onto the field... West calls security over, they proceed to remove Elaine)

KRAMER: Hey! Just wait a minute. We just got here!

GEORGE: (to Elaine) Do you want us to go with you?

KRAMER: (getting up) I'll go get your hat, George.

ELAINE: (sarcastically, to George) Stay!

GEORGE: Okay, we'll go!

(meanwhile Kramer is climbing over the dugout retrieve George's cap... the camera cuts to the field where the batter hits a pop fly to where Kramer is: the ball knocks him squarely in the head, he falls off the dugout onto the crowd)

Good news. More teams need to go back to uniforms/logos from the past.

Agreed.

Astros
Brewers
Phillies
Blue Jays
Angels


Can all go back to the 80's unis. And The Nationals should be the Expos and use those unis

While we're at it, A's and Pirates should go back to their crazy uniforms from the late 70's/early eighties.

Cubs should go back to their stiped powder blues.....

Jeff, Jeff, Jeff, let's not go that far. Cubs need to leave the baby blues along, but the Royals need to get back to them more often.

Nice move Orioles. Too bad the Padres are too big of pussies to bring back the brown and yellow classics the San Diego fans have longed for. They changed from the crap they wore the last few years to boring blue and white and grey on the road. Its better than the abortion that was the sand colored road uni's but still crap compared to what they could have.

The O's could just be part of a wild uni resurgence. Just don't go all Maryland Terrapins on us, MLB. :shock: :puker:

I'd like to see the Pirates go retro with the hats.

I fondly remember Gary Coleman donning those old Padre uniforms in "The Kid From Left Field".

The Mets have gone back to the orange, blue and white color combo and gotten rid of the black accent color.

As much as I like the silver & black the White Sox have sported since the final year of old Comiskey Park in 1990, I'd like to see the Sox unveil the 1959 retro uniforms & bring back the sleeveless version of the current pinstripe home uniform for select weekend home games as a change of pace.

Those '59 unis the White Sox sported for a couple of home games looked real cool. They're the ones without the names on the back, but also sport the block-style numbers on the back & and on the right sleeve.

The Orioles aren't the only team in Bud Selig's Major League Baseball that have gone "Back to the Future". The Blue Jays have gone back to the old school unis full time and debuted it today in Toronto. Feast your eyes on this...

Point well taken, UMN, but I was referring to the logo and the fact they've dumped the black caps with the "J" and word "Jays" on their alternate & home unis.
