You might not be able to tell from this picture but the right knee is patched. Would a team do that back then rather than just replace the pants? I guess if they only issued two pairs maybe they would.
I used to work for a MLB team and yes...they would patch rather than buy new. I was shocked when I first saw the amount of patches on the players pants as I always thought the big leages could afford new pants every time they got ripped. Lots of patches on those pants that for sure.
