Updated CCBL Uniforms

Fyrestorm3 · 12-18-2012, 11:42 PM

I was planning on starting a new game based in one of my favorite Summer Leagues, the Cape Cod Baseball League. However, I've discovered that the CCBL uniforms on OOTPMODS are out of date. In 2008, a few teams changed their names/logos after the MLB enforced its trademark and required teams that shared a name with MLB teams to either change their names or buy their uniforms through licensed vendors. So, I figured I'd get cracking on some updated uniforms. I'll be doing home, away, and alternates for all 10 teams.

Anyone is free to use these if they wish.

First up, my boys the Chatham Anglers.

NOTE: The away jersey is not a perfect recreation, but I'm not good enough with this stuff to do a full custom that I don't have a template for. I came close, though.

The Yarmouth-Dennis Red Sox:

For the Wareham Gatemen, I took a little bit of a liberty with their color scheme. They're actually red and very dark blue, and I was having a hard time getting the blue right. However, it's so dark that it tends to look black, so I decided to simply go with black for this template.

The Cotuit Kettleers didn't come out too great. The font's wrong, the colors are slightly off... but after two days of trying to get it right, I don't really care anymore. They're good enough.

These are awesome, mate ... I am planning on creating the CCBL Assn because of your touch with both the Unis and the logos ... as well as remembering my youthful days rendezvous along the shore of Massachusetts' coastline ... many thanks, mate ...

Fyrestorm3 · 12-23-2012, 03:49 AM

You are quite welcome, Jabez. This is a bigger project than I expected it to be; the Red Sox and the Anglers were simple, but there's a distinct lack of images when it comes to the jersey logos for the others. I've had to do my own text, trying to make it as close as possible to the real thing.

Case in point, the Falmouth Commodores:

The Harwich Mariners are the only team that didn't have to change their logo, since their name actually pre-dated the Seattle Mariners.

Dear lord, do I hate the Hyannis Harbor Hawks' new logo... their jerseys look pretty sharp, though.

Jabez54 · 12-28-2012, 03:25 PM

Really Like this, mate ... Yeah, aside from the name, Mets ... it used to have the hawk's head with the cap on, if I remembered correctly ... otherwise, looking really sharp in all ... White Caps and the Firebirds

...

Fyrestorm3 · 01-02-2013, 02:14 PM

The Orleans Firebirds don't actually have an alternate jersey (as far as I know), so I made one for them.

Jabez54 · 01-02-2013, 03:52 PM

Really Fabulous Orleans work there, mate ... sheesh, if the local sees this, they would of easily adopted the alternate sets - no question ask !!! ... many thanks!!!

Fyrestorm3 · 01-02-2013, 04:03 PM

Damn, did the Brewster Whitecaps give me some trouble. I couldn't even find a good-quality version of their logo. Luckily, a Google search led me to a beautiful, fan-made logo from the sportslogos.net forums.

And that's that. All 10 teams. That was harder than I expected, but I think the results are pretty good.

Jabez54 · 01-02-2013, 06:34 PM

More than "pretty good" ... it was done very well, mate !!! ...

many thanks for doing this project ... it really warm this old chap's heart from his young days of roaming the South Boston ... (Southie)

Just as an FYI, they (and some people on this site) are very sensitive about people "stealing" (their word) work from that site without permission. Just be aware.

Meh. I've dealt with that before, and I'll deal with it again. I gave credit and forewarning that it was not mine; if it comes to it, I'll just take it down.

And this project was about the jerseys, anyway. If I ever package them up for distribution, that logo won't be included, since it's not my work.

This is great work! As someone whose folks live in Falmouth, I followed the commodores when I was younger. My little bro was bat boy one summer in the early 90's. Many thanks!
