Posted by meech.one at 10:55 am ET 17 Comments

Word on the street is, your WFC Phillies will be sporting some stylish gold-trimmed pinstriped jerseys for their season opener on April 5th against the Braves.   Besides the outlined gold “Phillies” on the front; the player name & number on the back and the number & World Series Champions patch on the sleeves will also be accented.

    I posted about this earlier today too. I think these uniforms look sharp. Can’t wait to see them.

  2. Tartan69 says:

    LOVE the trim and accents. HATE HATE HATE the cut-out armpits.

    Also I know #5 is typically the default number for these uni templates, but using it here just seems so…weird…

  3. BobD says:

    What’s with that patch? Nothing like rubbing it in your opponents face.
    Flyers had an idea like that in 1975 with Stanley Cup patch on right chest of jersey.
    Players wouldn’t wear them, so they got rid of it.

  4. Phylan says:

    BobD, I’m pretty sure most MLB teams wear a world series patch following their championship season.

  5. meech.one says:

    I imagine the WS patch is just for that first game.

  6. Kieran Kelly says:

    I think this is a good move for the Phils. Nice to recognize last season’s accomplishments.

    I like the credit to. It’s a long line.

    -KK

  7. Lynniemac says:

    The #5 makes me sad, but somehow having that number with the name “Player” seems about right.

  8. Mr. Bryan says:

    With everyone pissed at the Eagles, good idea for the Phils to come out with another jersey for people to buy.

  9. maria says:

    Lynniemac it took a minute to get it. Very funny.

  10. Tartan69 says:

    As someone on The Level said today, it should instead read “Playa”

  11. mike says:

    I feel like this makes us look like the USC Phillies.

  12. vendor71 says:

    Are they only going to wear them on opening day? they already have the Sunday uni, so another is kinda overkill. They do look nice though. and Tartan, you’re right the arm vents look chintzy.

  13. will.H says:

    the houston astros?

  14. Gaze says:

    Looks like a nice way for them to sell another 50,000 or so replica jerseys…

  15. Jay Ballz says:

    I like them. Unique…suitable for the champs.

  16. Dewyane says:

    LOL Nice! I hope the Mets let us have another one next year. I think we should wear this against them so all the Mets fans can see it. They may have the best team in the division but we got the champs, and that’s all that matters!
