This may have been mentioned, but here are the new Arkansas Razorback uniforms, complete with pants.
I’m not a fan of the red on red.

And Oakland and Washington? Atleticos and Nacionals?

Hey I guess I didn’t miss that many…

Los Atleticos de Oakland, yes… and the Nationals I’m going to assume Los Nacionales de Washington. I haven’t been there since the Nationals moved. For what its worth The Expos were Los Expos

Apparently it was “Los Dbacks” night….which is the dumbest thing ever.

oh my god, you are right. I know Paul has done a feature on the whole “los” thing before, but this just took it to a hole nother level. I think next year, on like cinco di mayo or some other hijacked Hispanic holiday/celebration, Paul should have a special article titled “Los Uni Watch”. now THAT’S irony!

I love how MLB pays tribute to the Hispanic heritage that has made up a great deal of what baseball is today. However, teams need to quit being lazy and just simply put a “Los” in front of their name. I know that most people that speak spanish say the team name the same way it is in english, but teams need to really show that they are honoring the heritage. My suggestions: Either go the Milwaukee and San Fransisco route and have the full spanish name, or keep the english name and do hispanic heritage colors.

While I agree with you… I’ve kind of thought about it a bit and I think it all depends on how the teams are called in Spanish rather than what the translation is. For example, the Dbacks are the Dbacks in Spanish (very few people refer to them as Los Diamantes… Spanish media in Phoenix and elsewhere). Growing up in Venezuela and watching the MLB in Spanish certain teams were always what they are in English while some were translated.

Here’s a list:

Red Sox – Medias Rojas
White Sox – Medias Blancas
Mets – Mets
Phillies – Filies
Dodgers – Los Dodgers
Astros – Los Astros
Padres – Los Padres
Giants – Los Gigantes
D’backs – Los D’backs or Diamondbakcs (rarely Diamantes)
Cardinals – Los Cardenales
Cubs – Los Cachorros
Brewers – Los Cervezeros
Marlins – Los Marlins
Rockies – Los Rockies
Indians – Los Indios
Mariners – Los Marineros
Yankees – Los Yankees
Royals – Los Royals
Pirates – Los Piratas
Blue Jays – Azulejos
Reds – Los Rojos
Tiers – Los Tigres
Angels – Los Angelinos
Rays – Las Mantarrayas
Orioles – Los Orioles
Twins – Los Mellizos
Braves – Los Bravos
Rangers – Los Rancheros

Anyway… I’ve missed a few but from what I’ve seen, the teams that have done these Hispanic promotions have been fairly accurate.

Fed’s USO shoe—don’t see anything special here—no USO trophy logos as usual.

Ricko, Oregon wore Green/Green tonight.
Patrick Chung, listed on the roster with #15, was wearing a NNOB #29 jersey. Was he close to Todd Doxey, and this was his tribute?

patrick chung wore #29 as a tribute to Todd Doxey
and listening to the broadcast they said that a different player will wear #29 every game.

*MLB calls it a one hitter, but I call it a no hitter, but I am very biased as you may know.
