How To Get Them
The Gastonia Baseball Club's team shop includes merchandise and replica jerseys for each of the announced What If promotions set so far for 2024.
Glacier Range Riders
The Pioneer League's Glacier Ranger Riders wear camouflaged alternates as part of the usual uniform rotation. However, their most recent time breaking them out was an especially memorable one.
In their 8-6 win over the Great Falls Voyagers on June 1, pitcher Jonathan Pintaro learned his contract had been purchased by MLB's New York Mets.
How To Get Them
The Range Riders' camo alts are available at the official team store.
Oakland Ballers
Staying in the Pioneer League, this week marks the historic first-ever home series for the Oakland Ballers. The Ballers debuting home uniforms have special significance, keeping alive the historic green-and-gold look immediately associated with Bay Area baseball.
Oakland's MLB franchise may be leaving, but the Ballers are keeping the city's baseball tradition alive — and fans have taken notice.
The team store is sold out of the team's home jersey, but both the green away jersey and gold alternate are available. The Ballers' gold invokes thoughts of the 1970s Swingin' A's, a transformative squad in the game's history.
