Prince Is Revolutionizing MLB Fashion
By Chris Mottram | April 3, 2008
In the never-ending debate between wearing one’s baseball pants high and tight vs. low and baggy, I’ve always sided with the former. Call me old fashioned, but I like my socks pulled high, my ball players fat, and my tobacco chewed.
But what I witnessed today during the Cubs-Brewers game could put an end to this debate forever. Prince Fielder has combined the best of both pant’s worlds (apologies for the poor quality; no WGN HD in Charlotte):
Note the excessively baggy, Manny Ramirez fitting pants hiked up above the knee akin to Ty Cobb, minus the bigotry. I searched through some old photos of Prince and couldn’t find any other examples of him sporting this look. I don’t get to see many Brewers games, so this could very well be a regular thing. In fact, I really hope it is.

That. Is. Awful. Or awesome. I’m having a hard time deciding which. I do go socks high when I ball though.
