MLB All-Star Jersey Scavenger Hunt

Jul 13, 2011, 2:53 PM | Updated: 4:01 pm

My task was simple: Bring the “flavor” of the All-Star Game to you.

After walking around the Chase Field concourse for five minutes it wasn’t one flavor, it was the 31 flavors of Baskin Robbins. There were Red Sox jerseys, Yankees, Dodgers, Giants (lots of Giants), Brewers, Twins and, of course, the D-backs. It was stunning how many teams were represented. I felt like I was at a cocktail party at the United Nations.

So I decided to go on a scavenger hunt. A video scavenger hunt. The mission was to find and photograph the jersey or logo of every single Major League Baseball team. It wasn’t that hard. I found 90% of them within the first 20 minutes.

I worked in stealth mode, secretly looping around the fans and snapping the pictures. If somebody had been following me they probably would’ve thought I was a whack-job stalker. I won’t lie to you; I had an absolute blast doing it. By the 7th inning I had all but two teams, the Blue Jays and Marlins. That’s when they called in the closer.

Mark Asher took on the assignment of finding the last two teams and within 10 minutes he notched his first career ArizonaSports.com save.

So here they are, presented in order of the current MLB Standings.

A Corolla at running back might work for the Arizona Cardinals

The Arizona Cardinals might be better off looking for a running back in the draft than to land the big name.
