Hey, Whitey Herzog, Terry COllins, keep this one in your back pocket for the NLDS. I am being told that Scott Van Slyke has been seen wearing a red t-shirt, which does not match the blue t-shirts of his teammates.
As the chairman of the rules committee Sandy Alderson could tell you, that is not line with the wording of rule 3.03(b). You could consider going to the umpires and making Mr. Van Slyke change. Perhaps you need to stall time to bring in a reliever, or just want to do some Herzogian gamesmanship. Oh, and you might also want to get your own house in order before you go there.
I don’t know if Mr. Van Slyke wears red because he likes the color, or if it somehow honors someone, or has special meaning, but I did not write the rulebook.
Great job by @johnmgrimesjr on this!
