LOGO = I was trying to convey that I have read the ruling but have NOT been able to locate the source. It is driving me crazy as I know I read it somewhere.

A question back to you on the white on a logo:

"If a player rubs dirt on the white stiching in the logo is the logo still white?"
I always figured this was a real stretch. I do remember the Referree magazine saying something about the pitcher coloring it with a black magic marker.

Regards,

PS: I cannot beleive we are spending this much time on a rule that is flawed at best. I agree But we must remember that the white logo makes the glove an "illegal glove" and the penalty for that is it is used in making a play is a three base award for the batter.


Situation:

Bases loaded and the batter hits a one bouncer back to F1 who throws to first for the inning ended third out.

BUT WAIT!

Coach comes out and notes the illegal glove so you award the Batter third base . . . my, oh my!

Maybe we should all toss those terribly illegal bad gloves. Maybe just toss the stupid rule!!

Now if we could just get the rule book changed, Hmmm
