Nashville Sounds - Uniforms

Uniforms

The uniforms of the Nashville Sounds are descendants of the uniforms they adopted in 1999, after becoming affiliates of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Jerseys and pants for home games are made of white fabric, while those for road games are made of gray fabric. The sleeveless jerseys have red and black piping around the neck and along the row of buttons going up the chest. Pants have the same piping going down the legs on the outside. On home jerseys, the word "Sounds" is written across the chest in red script surrounded by black. A Milwaukee Brewers logo is located on the front left shoulder. The player’s name is written on the back in black block characters; numbers are also displayed in large red characters surrounded by black. Black t-shirts, of varying sleeve lengths, are worn underneath the jerseys. Road jerseys are the same, but with "Nashville" across the chest in the same style; they also lack the player's name on the back. The official home and road caps are black with the red and white music note logo centered on the front.

The team’s batting practice uniforms, which double as alternate uniforms, are identical to the home outfit, except they are worn with different jerseys. These jerseys are made of red mesh with a single line of black piping going down the sleeves and across the shoulders to the neck. "Sounds" is written across the chest in white script surrounded by black. There are black ventilation stripes located at the armpits, and a Brewers logo on the front left shoulder. Numbers, in white surrounded by black, are sewn on the back in block characters. The alternate uniform is worn with either the regular home/road black cap or the team’s red batting practice cap which bears a yellow and white version of the music note logo.

In conjunction with "Throwback Thursday" promotions which began in 2010, the Sounds wear uniforms reminiscent of those the team wore in the late-1970s and 1980s. The short-sleeved button up jerseys are made of red fabric with red, white, and blue stripes at the sleeve openings. The word "Sounds" is written across the chest in white music note-like script with a blue border. The backs of jerseys display the player's name, sewn in white letters, and their number, sewn in white characters with a blue border. The left sleeve features a patch of the team's original guitar-swinger logo. High pants, with red, white, and blue pin striping down the sides, are worn with blue belts and white socks with a single blue stripe down each side. The team cap is solid blue with an "N" styled like a music note in white, bordered by red on the front.

    I place these numbed wrists to the pane
    watching white uniforms whisk over
    him in the tube-kept
    prison
    fear what they will do in experiment
