Satiny Goodness Woefully Short on Actual Satin

From "Dodgers to wear throwbacks for six games" by Ken Gurnick at Dodgers.com:

Though the original uniform worn in the 1940s was made of a reflective satin to make it more visible under the lights for night games, the throwback jerseys will maintain a similar feel as those worn by the Dodgers throughout the 2011 season.

Translation: Your dream of seeing Vicente Padilla wearing reflective satin just went down the drain. Sorry!

Someone forgot to give Kershaw a Brooklyn cap. They also seem to have given him a jersey that is two sized too big.

At least there are no pinstripes.

@Karina

You're not the only one (though I admit it is a somewhat ironic love). The Battletoad should be one of the models, though.

I kinda like these. They're so hideous, they're almost funny.
