About MLB.com:
Commissioner Allan H. (Bud) Selig announced on January 19, 2000, that the 30 Major League club owners voted unanimously to centralize all of Baseball's internet operations into an independent technology company. Major League Baseball Advanced Media (MLBAM) was formed and charged with developing, building and managing the most comprehensive baseball experience available on the internet. In August 2002, MLB.com streamed the first-ever live, full length MLB game when the Texas Rangers and New York Yankees faced off at Yankee Stadium. Since that time, millions of baseball fans around the world have subscribed to MLB.TV, the live video streaming product that airs every game in HD to nearly 400 different devices. MLB.com also provides an array of mobile apps for fans to choose from, including At Bat, the highest-grossing iOS sports app of all-time. MLB.com features a stable of club beat reporters and award-winning national columnists, the largest contingent of baseball reporters under one roof, who deliver over 100 original articles every day. MLB.com also offers extensive historical information and footage, online ticket sales, official baseball merchandise, authenticated memorabilia and collectibles and fantasy games.

  • @GFS695
    How mnany times this year will they wear these, they look great, purple accent adds a nice touch.
  • @jayisasalad
    fire fire fire, clean, subtle but different and pays homage to the whole city. what these kind of jerseys should be doing
  • @cdLevo
    PLEASE restock the Senga kanji jersey at the NYC Flagship store, that is a must-buy for me
  • @TheBeanBrito
    Very much not a Mets fan but I do like these a lot.
  • Much better than I was expecting. Looking forward to seeing them on the field. 😁LGM
  • @samfisher6606
    It's not the best. Certainly not the worst. It feels inoffensive.
  • I think the multicolored trainline stripes could've worked on the outside, maybe on the sleeves so it doesn't overwhelm the overall look
  • They will be hot as hell in the summer and look like darker Yankee jerseys. The players are gonna be sweating alot
  • @randallparkerjr
    Nice job explaining the design. I still disagree with the purple. Thanks for pointing out there was a point to that.
  • @A.C.T1997
    I really like these jerseys. Perfect example of how the city connect jerseys don't have to be colorful to be awesome.
  • @eddypearson6131
    First, we went futuristic with the uniforms back in 98-99 season. Now this? What will they think of next time?
