For baseball: black, all the time. But as always with uniforms, if your association wants something specific, go with that.
Not that it matters, but black bags look fine with the blue shirts and caps the PCL guys wear.

20 plus years of doing this , I have NEVER heard ONE person complain about the color of a black, blue, navy or grey ball bag yet.
If thats the only thing you get wrong for each game, then your doing a hell of job. One exception though, if this is your full time job, do as the boss says. Oh, I rotate between navy and black depending upon what comes out of the the equipment bin first. And yes I have accidently worn both colors at the same time and still, no comments. HMMMM!

Once My cousin noticed one one my socks had a navy blue reebok logo and the other black. I didnt notice when I put them on. I told him I had another pair at home, just like them.
Only he would have noticed!

Ump-Attire Bags are the best made bags, period.
I met the owner of Ump-Attire at the Chicago NCAA meeting. Jim Kirk is a great guy to talk to.
I had purchased some Ump-attire bags when they first came out years ago. I didn't really like them, but they were okay. Jim sent me a set of the new bags, and they are wonderful. They are very close to the old Kangaroo bags of the early 1980's, the best bags ever made for baseball. I put my Carlucci bags in the extra equipment bin, these are top-notch bags. I have used the bags for two college DH's, and several cage sessions. They hold a lot balls, they don't bulge out, they have great pockets in them for indicator/brush, etc. I'll post a full review after a few more games, but these bags blow Honig's bags away. The Honig's bags are good, I rate them one level below my Carlucci's. The Ump-attire bags are just flat out better than anything else out there by a wide margin. They are expensive, but worth every penny you pay for them. As to color of bags, IMO you match the hat and shirt. That means for me black for college, navy for HS, and probably black for summer ball unless we use blue, then it's navy again. I am not a fan of gray ball bags since no matter what color you have, you will never get a perfect match. There are just too many shades of heather or charcoal to match up your bags with your pants. A contrasting color does not have to exactly match to look good.

Why buy an imitation when the original is available? Check out the "Dry-Lo" ball bag at Evans store.

We wore black recently, and my partner wore a faded purple beanie and navy ball bags. He also called an unexpectedly good game.

P.S. on the new Ultimate Ball Bags:
They are now the best that I have seen or tried. 1. New Ump-Attire Ultimate 2. Honig's 3. Jim Evans Dri-low 4. Smitty's 5. Generic homemade bag made by a partner's wife 6. Diamond 7. Gerry Davis (the cheapest, worst performing ball bag of them all)
