The greatest Minnesota Twins player have passed away as a result of a brief illness…

When the Minnesota Twins began to tease their City Connect uniforms last week there was anticipation building for the unveiling, which happened today. As fans got their first glimpses at threads that are certainly different from traditional uniforms, it’s hard not to see the reactions coming in all over the board.

Designed with a focus on lake life and the state’s 10,000 bodies of water, the Minnesota Twins really leaned into multiple design elements with their City Connect jersey. Nike helped to create something that heavily deviates from navy, red, and white that often adorns the bodies of Rocco Baldelli’s players, and a large dash of yellow was thrown in for the first time.

The tag line for the Minnesota Twins City Connect uniform is “The Ripple Effect.” When the jerseys dropped on social media, ripples could be seen throughout the mentions on any post highlighting the jerseys themselves. A yellow brimmed cap, with no red anywhere in sight, these were sure to be a polarizing offering.

Although the club suggested that yellow was a color bringing thoughts of lake setting suns, it seems as though the choice was a bit forced and fans are taking notice. A bit more of a fade could have been incorporated, as they did on the sleeve patch with the pink.
