Why do baseball managers wear uniforms? | Quick Question (MLB Originals)
They dress like the players, and tons of people aren't really sure why! On this episode of Quick Question (pres. by Apartments.com), we dive into why managers wear uniforms! For years, MLB managers have worn full uniform just like the players on their rosters, making it one of the most unique things about baseball. The genesis is rooted in the days where managers played on the team as well as coached, even though last player manager was in the 1980s!

Pete Rose putting himself in as a pinch hitter and getting a hit is such a classic move 😂😁😎
Fun fact: Rocco Baldelli (39) is actually younger than his oldest player (Nelson Cruz, 40).
Who else loves the MLB quick question vids??
Bobby cox saying “they might need me” = automatic legend status
I will love to see Bill Belichick in pads and helmet 😂
the last line says it all....they still think of themselves as ballplayers
First time coming across this series by mlb but this was pretty interesting and a little bit funny. I would love to see pinella trying to argue in a 3 piece suit haha! Looking forward to more videos and the playoffs starting! Stay safe everyone
I guess NASCAR crew chiefs technically count as wearing the same uniforms as the drivers for the most part, too.
Now I want to see pop in a spurs uniform
''In most sports the team is run by a coach; in baseball the team is run by a manager. And only in baseball does the manager or coach wear the same clothing the players do. If you'd ever seen John Madden in his Oakland Raiders uniform,you'd know the reason for this custom.'' - George Carlin
I love that the managers wear uniforms in mlb, hope it never changes. Also in mlb they are called managers not coaches
Never given it much thought until I saw this video. It looks natural to me, ever since I started watching baseball.
Didn't there used to be a rule where you couldn't step on the playing field unless you were in uniform. Connie Mack had a coach make pitching changes.
Let's start a petition to make Popovich wear a basketball jersey in a game 😂
Boone wears a hoodie
That Bobby cox quote made me smile
I'm loving these vids!! Keep making more!
If I recall, Art Howe had intended to wear the suit during the game and was told no by the mlb, which is why he only wore it for pregame.
Earl weaver getting a shout-out for his secret cigarette pocket is just 🤌 for me. Tiny little factoid you expect nobody outside of Baltimore to know. Gotta love it.
uniforms make them look like professional coaches, not rich owners who want control over the team. uniforms also look better
