Absolute minimal effort to gain more sales on both sides. Nothing special here. At all.

I pity the sports fan that would care about this! If this is what makes you watch sports... don't watch!

I'm sure there's a market for this, but it's going to eat into the camo hat/4th of July merch sales.

I don’t care if the Braves wear tank tops and speedos. Just win. Please.

I don’t understand the reason for playing a baseball game at a race track. Play the game in a corn field, Cooperstown, a classic parks from the past like Rickwood Field but a motor speedway makes no sense.

Our attention spans have become so eroded that major sports leagues have to continually create new made for TV moments/content to remain relevant.

So, as a true hater, to the very depths of my soul, of the Braves and everything Atlanta Braves related… Those hats are pretty cool looking

I guess my question is, why? what's with all the alternate uniforms?

Money. Every league takes any chance to sell a new Jersey edition these days.
