If you were among those who raised a quizzical brow and asked, “But... why?” when the Tigers announced uniform changes last season, then this new update will appeal to you.

Ahead of the 2018 season, the Tigers made some seemingly small, but ultimately polarizing changes to their uniforms. They switched out the D on the uniform to match the Olde English D on the caps, and then made the cap D bigger in an effort to fall in line with logo trends across the league.

There was backlash, and fans spoke out against the changes. It sounds like the Tigers were listening.
