When Giants reserve Eugenio Velez(notes) took the field for a double switch in the seventh inning at Houston on Wednesday night, he apparently had no idea his road grays read: "San Francicso."
Everyone else's jerseys were fine. Apparently, nobody on the team noticed Velez's, or if someone did, he didn't speak to Velez about it.
Majestic has seen something like this happen on its watch again. The athletic wear company manufactures all of MLB's jerseys, and apparently it learned nothing from the uproariously funny Washington "Natinals" debacle of a season ago.
Then, a missing "o." Now, transposed letters — a dysfunction that is merely dyslexic.
At least Nationals is a relatively new nickname. San Francisco has been in the Bay Area since 1776, and it's had a baseball team since 1958.
