With a quarter of the season behind us, the 2025 MLB campaign is in full swing. While it may be too early to gauge who the true contenders for the World Series or end-of-season awards might be, one thing is certain: Nike continues to dominate as the foremost innovator of baseball footwear and apparel in the 21st century.
