A young boy poses in his front garden wearing his baseball kit, USA c. 1960. He has his baseball mitt on, his white uniform has red trim and he a red cap and wears red socks. A baseball is at his feet. Players on a baseball team wear matching uniforms. Originally a team was identified by the colours of their stockings and the success of the Cincinnati Red Stockings popularised the adoption of sock colour as the club identity.

Traditionally home teams wore uniforms that were mostly white with trim while away team wore grey, both with trim in team colours. This image is from an old American amateur Kodak colour transparency. It will look slightly soft if used at too large a size – a vintage 1950s/60s photograph.
