Jake Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Many of you may remember this, I didn't. In 1999, almost all MLB teams hosted a Turn Ahead the Clock Night. According to Baseball Reference, the White Sox played in one of these games. What it was was each team designed a jersey for the year 2021, most of which with no sleeves, strange logo placement, among other things. You can read the Uni Watch to learn more. I wanted to see what the Sox wore that day, but they are just about the only team that I can't find a photo of the jersey they wore that day. So here's the challenge -- can anyone find it? Does anyone remember us wearing them? I'm curious as to what the Sox's rendition of these strange, fun uniforms were. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamTell Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 (edited) I think I do remember wearing them, but I also don't remember what they looked like. I'm not even sure if our colors were black for them. This is odd because I was thinking about this a few weeks ago, I remember SportsCenter showing what Babe Ruth would've looked like in the Yankees Turn Ahead The Clock. http://www.baseball-reference.com/bullpen/...the_Clock_Night According to that, we wore ours against the Indians on September 10th.

Swingandalongonetoleft Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I googled "turn ahead the clock night" and The Rockies and Indians had decent looking unis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted September 14, 2008 Author Share Posted September 14, 2008 Check out Griff on the first TATC Night, in 1998 which was supposed to be a one game deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vance Law Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I was at that Sox game. They gave out silver Sox hats to the first however many fans. Silver! I can't believe I lost that thing, it ruled. The Sox got destroyed by the Indians in the game. Those future uniforms are not bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
