ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS

D-backs get brand new batting practice caps

Dec 27, 2012, 8:38 PM | Updated: 11:05 pm

The Arizona Diamondbacks will be receiving a bit of a makeover heading into 2013, and this time GM Kevin Towers had no hand in the matter.

The makeover will take place to the design of the team’s batting practice cap. In fact, all 30 MLB teams will have new BP hats next season, but at first glance the D-backs might have been one of the few to receive an upgrade.

Instead of having Sedona red dominate the cap, Arizona’s new look will primarily feature black with a Sedona red bill and logo.

ESPN.com’s Uni Watch expert Paul Lukas ranked all 30 teams, and the D-backs were one of seven clubs to receive an A grade or higher.
