#WHO WON 2016 WORLD SERIES BASEBALL PATCH#
While at home the Indians wore a version fairly similar to what they wear today (perhaps superior? again, sleeve patch aside). The sleeve patch is, well, considerably worse than what they wear today:Ĭleveland Indians road uniform during the 1948 World Series While on the road Cleveland wore grey with blue piping down the front and red stripes on either sleeve, “CLEVELAND” was sewn across the front in an extreme arch in red with blue trim. This cap was worn for all games during the 1948 season home and on the road. Let’s take a look back to how these two teams dressed when taking the field during these World Series victories, starting with the Cleveland Indians (shown at the top of this post wearing their 1948 home uniforms).Ĭleveland wore a navy blue cap with a red bill and button and a red wishbone C (yes, that’s the same logo the Cincinnati Reds use today) on the front.
So we’re talking a combined 176 World Series free years between these two franchises… suddenly the Leafs’ Stanley Cup drought doesn’t seem so bad anymore! The Cleveland Indians, who last lost a World Series in 1997 to the Florida Marlins, have gone without a championship since 1948 (45 years before the Marlins even played their first ball game) their opponents this fall, the Chicago Cubs, have gone even longer having not won a title, it’s been 108(!) years since they downed the Detroit Tigers in 1908. Haven’t you heard? It’s been a while since either of this years pennant winners has tasted the sweet champagne that awaits following a victorious World Series.
