The ML umps are wearing a powder blue (or delta blue if you want to call it that), with black and white trim. The powder blue shirt I have has navy and white trim, which I think is what NCAA uses. I also have the traditional navy and a cream. My HS association only uses the navy, but they are generally finished by early June and generally play in late afternoon or at night. For summer leagues in broad daylight I prefer the powder blue or cream. When it is 90+ heat is relative, but powder blue or cream are better than navy.

I saw a ML game a week or two in broad daylight and the umps had on black. It was 90 degrees here, but the game was in Boston. I went online to get weather in Boston and it was 65 degrees. I can understand black shirts in 65 degree weather. Much warmer than that, and I don't understand black shirts.
