What were those uniforms the Rays were wearing?















Evidently these were the uniforms of the minor league Tampa Tarpons.
I thought they were honoring the University of Texas for some reason.

But forget THOSE unis...

Tampa's opponent, the unstoppable Buck Showalter led Orioles, broke out their all Orange uniforms.

Arguably one of the worst top and bottom uniform ever, they did get one thing REALLY right.

The Smiling Bird was back.

They looked like ORIOLES again with the smiling bird.

Come on Buck... as I wrote before the smiling bird is critical for the Orioles to be relevant again.

You've got the birds winning again. Now let's get the bird on the cap to relax!

Yes Buck... Angelos is still the owner



















Suddenly Buck doesn't look so happy about the new gig.

He had a nice cushy TV gig and now he is taking the baseball gig that can be best be compared to coaching the Oakland Raiders.

The gig used to mean pride and championships.

Now it is a joke being played out in front of empty seats, pissed off fans and an owner who should sell the team out of mercy.

Then again all Buck has to do is lead them to mediocrity and he'll be a hero. Lest we forget the Orioles haven't been a .500 team since the 1997 ALCS. Their incompetency streak is a mere 5 years shorter than their opponents from '71 and '79, the Pirates.

Good luck Buck.

Start by changing back to the smiling bird hat.
