STITCHED BY SQUAD - A Baseball Song by The Grand Slam Jam Band

Описание: Some wore cleats. Some wore ties. Some wear hoodies now.

“Stitched by Squad” traces the quiet evolution of coaches’ uniforms — from player-managers in the dust to hooded strategists on the bench.
It’s a story of tradition that never made the rulebook — just the dugout code, passed on in fabric, gesture, and game-day gear.

And yes — it answers the question why coaches wear numbers too.

With a mellow groove and warm guitars, the song leans into the subtle poetry of uniforms that say more than names ever could.

Because in baseball, even what you wear can carry the weight of legacy — and sometimes, a number on your back is all the reason you need.

LYRICS:

Back in the days, the coach took the field
He called all the plays with a bat as his shield
No bench, no chart, no coaching attire
Just dirt on his shirt and hands full of fire
His jersey was stained like the rest of the crew
But his word was the law — and everybody knew
No clipboard, no headset, no seat in the shade
Just spikes in the dust and decisions he made ////

You’ve seen the coach in a jersey too
Ever wondered why? Well, here’s the clue
It’s not a rule — it’s just the way
Let the story light your day
Coaches in numbers — it might seem odd
But it’s tradition, stitched by squad
Don’t need a book to understand
Just listen close, we’ll make it land ////

Later, they traded their cleats for a tie
Sat back in the dugout with barely a sigh
No swinging, no sliding, no run for the ball
They managed with hand signs and stares from the wall
Their suits stayed sharp through the midsummer heat
Their voices were calm, their timing was neat
No hustle, no shouting, no dust in the eye
Just silence and signals — and still flying high ////

You’ve seen the coach in a jersey too
Ever wondered why? Well, here’s the clue
It’s not a rule — it’s just the way
Let the story light your day
Coaches in numbers — it might seem odd
But it’s tradition, stitched by squad
Don’t need a book to understand
Just listen close, we’ll make it land ////

Today it’s a hoodie, a zipped-up routine
With logos and stitching in navy or green
No buttons, no stirrups, no caps with a curl
But still part of baseball, still part of the swirl
They don’t swing a bat, but they’re calling the game
With tablets and charts and a bench to their name
Not suits, not jerseys — just something between
A mix of tradition and modern-day sheen ////

You’ve seen the coach in a jersey too
Ever wondered why? Well, here’s the clue
It’s not a rule — it’s just the way
Let the story light your day
Coaches in numbers — it might seem odd
But it’s tradition, stitched by squad
Don’t need a book to understand
Just listen close, we’ll make it land ////-
