Oh, and to iterate on this a bit: the baseball theme isn't just toned down in the show, it's just not there at
all.
The only trace of it left is the suits looking like that, and the show's main theme is one of science.
The reason for abandoning the baseball theme was twofold: for one, it just wasn't working for the story they were wanting to tell; I guess only when you hit the 2000s can you really start working out how to work in themes like magic and samurai and trains. But more importantly, there was this little show you might have heard of that was happening at the time called Gavan? And Gavan, well, it was
just a little bit of a hit!
So much so that Goggle V's ratings were devastated by it, so Dynaman was fine-tuned to have some kind of legs to stand on in the space sheriff's shadow. I imagine that's why we see such a heavily increased SFX budget; in order to compete they were likely going all out to impress their audience, which you probably need to do when the other guy's got a lightsaber and a flying saucer that turns into a dragon
