I know you like this and want to know what it is. The answer is in this week’s ESPN Uni Watch.
All hail “Supreme Commander of Allied Forces to Ditch the Black” Paul Lukas for another great find.
Speaking of no-black, my new office at Mets Police HQ is really coming along. I’ll give you guys a photo tour next week, but it’s amazin’ what you can do with blue and orange and no black if you try.
The lack of black is very likely the reason Charlie S. never used them
Wonder if they would do this in black if the individual player preferred it.
Maybe, but the Mets actually use these now:

Except for RA Dickey
I must say, those look really great…when I was a kid, I designed a Met uniform that had numbers in a ball like that…sent it to the Mets and Frank Cashen wrote back to me on Mets letterhead. I might have the letter somewhere, maybe even the jesey design.
