| Useless trivia to lighten the mood.....heard it driving this morning. What one logo are all Major League teams prohibited from putting on their uniforms?

| A baseball? I read years and years ago that they didn't want umps calling a close play to confuse it with the actual ball.

| The answer, and this is per the radio show I was listening to on the drive in, is a baseball. Many logos incorporate the baseball into them, including the Mets. Maybe they were referring about the front of the uni's.

| That's the answer. I am curious to whether this is now an expired rule by MLB. Hell, the Mets have a baseball on their shoulder patch logo.

| I would think it's OK as long as it's not a plain white ball with red stitches. An ump sees a flash of that during a bang-bang play and it might alter the call. Who knows?
