During Monday's Baseball Today podcast with Mark Simon, the topic of Oakland's new gold alternate jerseys came up (the A's had been winning in them, so they kept wearing them).

Anyway, I pointed out that I liked the new jersey. Mark liked it as well. Our producer, Jason Soderberg, made a great point that his 7-year-old son definitely liked it. The jersey is sort of an updated look to Oakland's gold tops from the 1970s -- a slightly more modern yellow/gold color scheme with srtipes down the buttons. I've never been a big fan of the bright uniform look, but this one is really sharp, stands out and is the best new look of 2011.

I still like the Phillies' cream jerseys as my favorite uniform in baseball, but this one ranks near the top.

What do you think? Give it a thumbs up or thumbs down and enjoy a few photos below of A's jerseys from the past.
