    For some 80 years, All-Start players wore their team uniforms.
    But starting in 2021 - and now for the third time - players are wearing
    "League" uniforms" ie National League (Blue) and American League (Green)

    Personally, I prefer the players wearing their team uniform.

    Here is what some of the players are saying:

    What say you?

    Follow the money. Nike has another uniform jersey and hat to sell.

    The owner of the team should dictate team uniforms not the league. What’s this world coming to?

    I say, "Puke" I coached little league and senior league for 16 years. I coached a player drafted to the MLB, two of my sons played college baseball, so I follow MLB.

    I say, let them wear their own uniforms. When people watch the game, they will recognize them. If it's about merchandise, which MLB says it is, no one buys National or American League Uniforms. No one.

    I can see the NFL and NBA all-stars needing to wear the same uniform -
    but Baseball is - well Baseball! IT is tradition!
