I don't see how you could say a catcher can't wear a glove when the rule says
1.12 The catcher may wear a mitt.
To me that does not prevent them from wearing a glove.
It certainly makes no sense that you would let them go bare-handed, but not wear a glove.
Besides MLB UMP 2.11 says may not substitute a fielder's glove or first baseman's mitt during progress of a game implies that he can wear a glove as long as it is not substituted.
We often have kids in Pony wear a glove - usually occurring when a catcher is lefty and has no catcher's glove.
