After years of having its All-Stars wear their own team uniforms for the Midsummer Classic, Major League Baseball brought some uniformity to the 2021 event with blue jerseys for the “visiting” AL team and white for the NL — and got absolutely roasted for how bad they were.
This year, they found a way to blend the two ideas.
2022 All-Stars will wear jerseys that resemble their own team jerseys with their unique logos on the front, but they’ll all be the same color. The NL jerseys are again white and the AL jerseys are gray — a similar shade as the Nationals’ cherry blossom City Connect alternates — with the logos emblazoned in gold. The hats are all black with gold logos.
This look is so clean.

I’ve always been a fan of players wearing their own uniforms in All-Star Games, representing for their entire city and team. But this is a great middle ground. These jerseys bring a sameness to the squads but also allow the teams each player represents to really stand out.
I’d be a fan of these sticking around in the future.
