Socks up in Little League, down in high school. If Ubaldo really wants to pitch better, he just needs to lose the New Balance's.

We had real stirrups when I played tee ball (yeah I know..lame, etc.) and then my softball teams had either solid or striped socks. I always wore them up, and prefer when baseball players do as well. Baseball pants should be tight, but maybe that's just my lady parts talking.

^^^Obviously...you don't want the pants 'bloused':laugh:. Other than the traditional throwback look, I'm not sure what bloused pants would do for you. Like Kipnis says in that MLB video, he wants his pants tight and his socks up...'socks up' makes you faster;)....keeps things streamlined...less for the opposition to tag when you're stealing bases.

If Ubaldo really wants to pitch better, he just needs to lose the New Balance's.
That picture in the OP shows what he wore in 2011, and now in 2013. I think most Tribe fans would agree, that UJ has been pretty good this year....only change I see is 'the stirrups'.
