Got there is no standard answer. Check with our own association.

Thanks for the answers they all make sense.

Paperipper: Has Leland mention any preferences to you?

No, just that we should match. I usually have red, gray, and black in the truck and just go with whatever the other guy wants. What are you feelin' on Saturday buddy? B) lol

That guy is a nut.

And you're just saying that because of the incident with Grenke and Hillman last year!

Yeah... the Grienke ejection was kind of funny... if you listen to the video you can clearly hear Zach ask, "Hey Greg, where is the strikezone today?". He wasn't even pitching.

But, he has a good zone from what I've seen. It's just that his navy All-Star bucket is a little distracting.

Gibby's got the dish in Texas today for the Rangers - Jays tilt...it doesn't look too bad with the new powder shirts (which are butt ugly).

The Grienke ejection transcript was as follows:

ZG: "Hey Greg, let's go with the strike zone."

GG: "What?"

ZG: "That last pitch was inside"

GG: ;)

The guy wasn't even pitching that day ;)

I think he had a date with his smokin hot wife and wanted to get out of there.

I don't think the new blacks look all that bad, but I agree, the new powders are ugly. They had a good thing with the black collar.

Wanna do the Cream Shirt with Black or Navy Undershirt?

I have other Shirts also (Powder, powder MLB, Navy, Black)

I have Navy and red Undershirts and can also pickup a couple of blacks.

I actually don't have cream :o

I have navy, powder (RWB and White/navy trim), black, and white. I'm pretty unlimited on undershirts though, black, navy, red, white, whatever. My cream unfortunately is on back order and won't arrive until next week.

How about we start with Powder RWB Navy Undershirt and then if we need to switch to a different color we can.

Haven't worn my RWB yet. Just got it in yesterday.

Would you like to take the first 2 behind the plate and I will take the next 2? Or vice-versa?

This is my first big Tournament in a long while. But either way is good with me.

Definitely black under cream. Either red or blue under the powder with RWB. I prefer the blue but I also don't use that shirt. I have powder with navy stripe and Polo with black. Powder=blue, Polo =black.

I know I'm not the moderator, but is this really the right medium for a discussion between two umpires on what they are going to wear for a game they are working together? It seems to me that email or text messaging, or (gasp!) even a phone call would be better for them and spare us from reading this crap.

The conversation is still primarily about the Undershirt colors with a twist of what we are going to wear.

This is the Free for All section

Sorry about that. Forgot about the PM feature. But you could make the argument that we are simply providing an example of what two umpires may choose to wear during an extended time, having to switch colors during the day and whatnot...:clap:
