A curious assertion, given that the majority of MLB ballplayers wear their uniforms in one of two ways: with the pants at knee-level (or above) or as full-length pants that drape over the shoes. Unimaginative is lending credit to today’s current “style”. The point is that the art and ritual of donning a baseball uniform in the Major Leagues has given way to a more bland, utilitarian, and un-nuanced necessity.
Dressing in a baseball uniform used to be a ritual. Not anymore.
