36. Yeah, the old wool unies

Before double-knit came along, it wasn't uncommon for a pitcher to sweat off 10 pounds on a hot day in St. Louis or someplace.

Then, in the Polyester Age, you had guys who'd have their uniforms tailored because, as Wayne Comer (I think) put it, "I add 20 points to my average if I know I look bitchin' out there." :D
