I don't like the interpretation that requires the award of three bases for an illegal glove. How about this: the glove is legal because the person wearing it is no longer a PITCHER - he is a FIELDER and there is nothing wrong with any FIELDER wearing a multi-colored glove. Have the PITCHER replace it before the next pitch, but no other penalty. This is analogous to the pitcher being allowed to feint to first after he disengages from the rubber because he is no longer a pitcher, but a fielder.
