Gasp! Pirates, not Cubs, wear Kris Bryant's favorite baseball uniforms

Share

The Cubs' uniforms are some of the most iconic in professional sports.

But they aren't the favorite of one of the team's biggest stars.

In a video tweeted out by Major League Baseball on Monday, Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant — a two-time All Star and a strong midseason candidate to win the National League MVP award — picked the Pittsburgh Pirates as the squad with his favorite uniforms in baseball.

In the video, Bryant sure seems hesitant to reveal his admiration for the style of one of the Cubs' division rivals.

"I love the Pittsburgh Pirates' uniforms. I love their color ways," he said. "They happen to be one of our rivals, but I can like their uniforms. Their uniforms are nice, and that's one of my favorites."

Gasp!

Now, this surely doesn't mean Bryant will be going easy on the Bucs just because of what they happen to be wearing. After all, he's hitting .384 with four home runs, 22 RBIs and 23 walks in 30 career bouts with the black and yellow.
