Man I miss those old Astros uni's. Hate the junk they wear now. I like the logo on their current caps though. Now, if they could combine that logo with a slightly updated version of these old threads... it'd be awesome.
ReplyDeleteI love the warmup jacket under the uni!
ReplyDeleteHmm, 11 innings on July 2nd, muscle spasm on the 7th....I wonder why? ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat colors, starting with the typography, and a great card.
