So game after game, for as long as baseball existed, the Yankees wear the same home and away uniforms – perhaps with a very small exception in time when they did the black jerseys here and there.  Same with the Red Sox and Dodgers, give or take a name on the back of the uniform from time to time.

Considering the history and rep of these teams, why the heck does almost every other team screw around with all these whacky uniform combinations?  Does a team really need six different jerseys, three different pants, and three unique caps?
