"Many fans aren't going to be able to tell that these are camouflage uniforms paying tribute to the military." Alright Jack, say that back to yourself.

Perhaps the Chargers will also adopt them. They might beef up their running game - defenders won’t see the ball carrier until he’s already past them.

I wonder how many more bases Ricky Henderson and Lou Brock have stolen had they worn this camouflage?

Catchers would have had no chance to throw them out.

If he’s a border guard then he needs a mini-gun!

That's the desert MARPAT...it still ought to stand out fairly well on a green ballfield. This is the woodland MARPAT, which probably would have played havoc with TV cameras...

They should have no problem stealing bases. Of course, the umpire might not see them when they steal home, so it could work against them.

The picture of the soldier on the couch is hilarious. Camo for urban warfare!

The newest high-tech camouflage now sold by Cabelas, expensive but after looking at the video it works.

It is named Invisible Camouflage.

See if you can spot the guy wearing it,,,,,, In the video he even gives hints to his location so turn up the sound.

Even with the hints I bet you can't find him.

If they’d play better then they wouldn’t have to worry about getting shot at.
