So the first teams I'm going to show you are from the NEBL.
Up first we have the Boston Sugarmen. Named after, well sugar. Specifically granulated sugar which was first created in Boston in 1860. Their colors are cream and navy. Their logo is a rounded script reading "Boston", that is also featured on their road uniforms.
The next team up are the Worcester Valentines. Valentines, was chosen as the team name because of the heart found on the flag. The city is also known as the Heart of the Commonwealth. Their logos feature a red heart and a W on either side of their jerseys. A big red stripe is also found on their caps.
The third team are the Providence Red Caps. The 'Caps are named after their, well, red caps. Something new to baseball. Most teams didn't color their caps, so it made it special to Providence. They wore cream at home and grey at home and had some of the simplest uniforms in the NEBL. Their logo is a P for Providence.
The penultimate team are the Deacons of Springfield. The simplest teams in the NEBL, their logo is an S for Springfield and their uniforms feature nothing special except for some striped socks. They wear white pants on the road to save money. Sometimes players wear there own pants if the they ever get a hole or something in their uniform ones.
The final team in the NEBL are the Manchester Millers. Named since most of the people of Manchester are millers, along with the players also being so. The only team to wear a color on the road. Their black uniforms have the word Millers across the chest. This also happens to be their logo.
So next up is the USBL, all teams are in either Kentucky or Ohio. 4 teams use a different uniform style then the NEBL, which was more common in the southern US. And most also don't have a crazy amount of money so some uniforms are mismatched. Here the teams:
First, the Cincinnati Rivermen. Named after the Sailors of the steamboats that went up and down the Ohio River. Their colors are cream and navy. and they adorn a big C on their chest for Cincinnati.
Next, the Louisville Stallions. Owned by a horse farm owner. He named the team after that. Their the only team so far to use green. Their uniforms feature their primary logo on their chest, a weird arrangement of the word Louisville.
The third team are the Covington Generals! Named after the amount of soldiers that volunteered for the civil war. The original name, Volunteers, was changed to generals, due to one of the Generals for the Confederacy, saying he would help coach the team. They wear simple uniforms. They're the only team to have a button down jersey. Their primary logo is a maroon C.
Up next is the Hamilton Athletic Club. Not much too this team. A classy H goes with the classy team name. A navy jersey with striped socks finish off their look.
Last but not least, the Dayton Eagles! Named after the national animal, the bald eagle. the team is the only team to use the color orange. They have the weirdest combination of uniforms however. Pants weren't provided to the players, so the white pants shown are only one possibility to what the team could look like. The shirts however, are cream at home and grey on the road. Each adorning Dayton's D logo.
There's the USBL! A lot more unique looks here than in the NEBL. Don't get attached to any teams or looks however. Were still in the 19th century and a lot of things will change!
