Now that the Fashion Police can enter a dugout in the middle of a game to check Tito Francona for proper uniform will they do something about the pants to the shows aspect?
It seems that every day our world gets more ludicrous

The NFL has been doing this forever (probably 20 years) and it seems to work for them. They warn the players of any uniform violation and then if it is not corrected before the game the player has to pay a hefty fine. For repeated offenses the player will be suspened without pay for X number of games. I want to know what the MLB union has to say about this.

I don't believe managers are a part of the union. Thus, they'll stay out of it until a player is affected.
Huh?

Which will be very soon. Who takes care the managers retirement, is it not the players association?
Does someone know why some mlb players put their pants down to the soles of their cleats?
Aren't they going to trip on them?
Much more concerned about their playing skills then what they are attired in.

Hey Woody,
Nothin' like Bill Veeck's pajama party... one of his most innovative ideas.

Its just a guess, but perhaps they're embarrassed by their cleats and they don't want anyone to see them.
That makes about as much sense as anything else.
We all missed something here. They were playing the Yankees and the umps just happened to come over and check him out. Since his heart surgery, he has been wearing the pull over. Seems there were no Pine Tar bats to inspect.
However the Yanks did manage to check for illegal bats against.... Tampa Bay.
The wheels are certainly coming off the cart in NY and the Yanks aren't the classiest bunch when they aren't on top.

It wasn't the umpires---it was MLB who came into the dugout during the game to check Francona

I realize that Tom. But he's been wearing that for awhile, and only during the Yankee series were MLB interested in inspecting him. Smells funny.
