Turn Ahead the Clock

Turn Ahead the Clock was a promotion in Major League Baseball (MLB). It was originated by the Seattle Mariners marketing team in the 1998 season. During the 1999 season, all but ten teams elected to wear the promotional uniforms that were in a "future" style. The uniforms have been widely criticized and the promotion proved unsuccessful.
==Origin==
In 1998, Kevin Martinez, former Seattle Mariners marketing director, came up with the idea to have futuristic jerseys from the 2027 season as an alternative to "Turn Back the Clock" promotions. The marketing team transformed the Kingdome to give it a futuristic atmosphere.〔 According to Martinez, Ken Griffey, Jr. was instrumental in the design of the jerseys and came up with the idea to change the Mariners' colors from teal, blue and white to red, black, and silver.〔 Majestic Athletic worked with the Mariners' marketing team to create the uniform.〔 Martinez himself described the jerseys as "gaudy".〔 The Mariners' opponent during the promotion was the Kansas City Royals, who according to Martinez, were "fantastic to work with".〔 Originally, the Mariners played with the jerseys un-tucked and turned their baseball caps backwards. Griffey, Jr. painted his teammates baseball cleats with silver spray paint.〔 Griffey, Jr. also convinced teammates to cut off the sleeves of their uniforms.〔 During the game, the umpires, who were wearing silver shirts as a part of the promotion, ruled that the un-tucked shirts gave batters an advantage because they could more easily be hit by a pitch so the umpires ruled that the players had to tuck them in.〔 The Mariners promotion was considered successful, unlike the major league wide promotion in 1999.〔 The futurism also extended to pregame festivities: the ceremonial first pitch was thrown out by James Doohan (Mr. Scott from ''Star Trek''), who arrived at the pitcher's mound in a DeLorean and was given the ball by a robot created at the University of Washington.〔
