    Braves using/wearing different equipment this year....

    Just thought I'd pass this along since I see a lot of Braves players using/wearing new equipment this year:

    Chipper Jones is wearing a new style batting glove, this first new design I've seen in about 10 years. Same for Francoeur

    Edgar Renteria is using Sam Bats. Since joining the Braves, he mainly used O69 red LS bats but lately I've been seeing him using both the O69 and a few Sam bats.

    Andruw Jones is using Mizuno bats. I've never once seen him use one before in the past. I first saw him using it during tonights Braves/Nats game and I could clearly see his name on the barrel so it was indeed HIS bat.

    The Braves nameplates are back to being in block letters. I don't know why some years they have block lettering and in other years they have arched lettering, but they just do I guess




    If I ever notice anything else I'll post it here

    Francoeur's new batting glove style:



    Renteria using Sam Bats:





    ......and I now see that Andruw is also wearing a new style batting glove as well. It's still the same Jordan brand but just a different design:

    Also during tonight's game, I noticed Matt Diaz using those "burned"-type bats. I rarely see these:

    Kyle,

    I think Andruw Jones is using a Marucci bat not Mizuno. Mizuno change the centerbrand logo this year.
