Which team has MLB's best uniforms?

Vote in each bracket just to see who's "ahead" in each bracket. (The "tournament" continues all this week.) Tradition certainly is a huge advantage, but there were a few surprises.

Which team has MLB's best uniforms? - SportsNation - ESPN

EDIT: Don't miss three things:

1. Seinfeld's quote about uniforms; he said that because of the way players constantly change teams and teams occasionally change cities, sports fans are actually rooting for clothes. "You are standing and cheering and yelling for your clothes to beat the clothes from another city," he said. "Fans will be so in love with a player, but if he goes to another team, they boo him. This is the same human being in a different shirt, but they hate him now. 'Booo!!! It's a different shirt! Booo!!!!'"

2. The unexpectedly close battle between the Mets and the Nationals (putting my "traditional advantage" theory to the test).

3. Interesting and funny comments made by the authors, explaining their seedings (including why they gave the Tigers and Cardinals first-round byes). Example, about the Indians: "Sorry, when you insist on Chief Wahoo on the cap, you'll be seeded last no matter the rest of the uniform."
