Makes me wonder if it was an in-season addition to the helmets.Chris H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16716470456962667739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1455498748416586967.post-49568214849636374742015-05-21T19:59:30.885-07:002015-05-21T19:59:30.885-07:00It's not too often you see a logo on the side ...It's not too often you see a logo on the side of a baseball helmet. And then for it to be such a rare style makes it even better. I wasn't even aware of it or it's unusual placement.<br /><br />Funny how baseball has their logos on the front like a cap, while football evolved that "normal" is on the sides and how hockey has it's own unique look as well.JeffBhttp://thirdstringgoalie.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1455498748416586967.post-18326594605971573792013-03-10T08:41:35.007-07:002013-03-10T08:41:35.007-07:00Interesting.

As a Cubs fan I have a natural hatred for the Birds but I do like their uniforms.Hackenbushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15507810776309048794noreply@blogger.com
