The MLB All-Star Game was fun, but all anyone could talk about were … the uniforms.

Fans were meh on them before the contest at T-Mobile Park in Seattle, and then the combo of the National League’s navy jerseys and black pants got slammed. I saw a ton of tweets about the batting helmets that people didn’t like.

But I also saw the solution that a lot of folks came up with: Can we just go back to the players wearing their own uniforms?

At least let them wear their own caps and batting helmets…

That’s it! So simple. And it’s fun to see the mix of uniforms on the field. We’re not under the illusion that the group of the game’s best players is suddenly a team. And I know the uniforms mean the league will sell more merch, but if you look at Twitter, you know fans will be happier.

This is easy, MLB.
