Personally, I celebrate the entire catalog. The primary colors on the main uniforms pop. Red and green are so bold. That makes the lighter alternative look like a perfect changeup. The distinctive monogram M on the caps has become instantly recognizable. Straight fuego. — Marc Carig
The hats, man. They’re just so good. Every different color variation I’ve seen of it has been solid. It’s a new classic. El Tri has some of the best uniforms in international soccer every year and the baseball squad continues that tradition. I love a national sports uniform identity, especially one that is different from red, white and blue. — C. Trent Rosecrans
It’s all perfect. The M on the cap takes from the 1968 Summer Olympics logo when the games were in Mexico City. That same ’60s vibe echoes on the alternate blue kit, with another echo to the Games. Jamming red and green together in a set can get tricky. A wrong turn and suddenly you’re standing in one of those gaudy pop-up Christmas shops in the mall with priced-to-sell Alf tree decorations. Wisely, Mexico’s unis pick a side. The home version is primarily green, the road set mostly red and the blue is one of the best baseball sets going in any league in the world. Here are your WBC look champs. — Nick Groke
