For the first time, Major League Baseball has an official sock sponsor, having reaching a multi-year deal with Stance. Starting with this year’s All-Star Game and continuing on a more widespread basis for the 2017 season, every sock worn on the field by MLB players will be from Stance’s new Fusion Baseball line. Stance’s collection features four different styles (Memorial, Diamond, Legends, Stadium) available for each team, potentially providing a variety of additional uniform combinations for MLB teams.
