Ever wonder how they choose which uniforms to wear?

Have you ever pondered how baseball teams pick which uniform combination to wear?  The Minneapolis Star Tribune gives us a look inside the Minnesota Twins clubhouse, showing how the starting pitcher selects the uniform combination for the game.  

Check it out here.  

Other teams in the majors have similar methods for picking the uniform for the day.  For the Chicago Cubs, Ryan Dempster tends to wear the home pinstripes or the gray away unis, and Carlos Zambrano chooses the blue alternate tops whether he is pitching home or away.  

Minnesota Twins Alternate Jersey

The Minnesota Twins will be wearing an alternate third jersey this season - their last in the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome.  The jersey will be complimented by an alternate two-tone cap - completing the throwback uniform.  While Well Dressed Girlfriend hates two tone caps, I really like this particular cap.  

While I really like the idea of sporting throwbacks from this era, I think the Twins really should have gone with the powder blue, v-necks from Kirby Puckett's rookie season - my favorite Twins uniform.  The powder blue jersey is the one and only jersey that I can wear to any stadium in the country and get compliments from opposing fans.
