Question from 2004

[Little Jimmy]

"ART.2...The proper uniform for an umpire consists of a powder blue shirt (pullover or button style), heather gray or navy blue slacks, jacket, pullover knit sweater, cap, and ball bag (plate umpire only)..."

I always interpreted this phrase as meaning navy blue slacks and jacket and pullover and etc, etc. In other words the navy blue was a descriptive for all of the following items(including ball bag). It doesn't state specifically "navy cap" so can we wear a grey one? As always it's up to the state/local organizations to set uniform standards.
