It's really much simpler than what everyone is making it.
On offense, a HBP is defined as a pitch striking the person or clothing. Obviously, a batter with an untucked shirt has a tremendous advantage over the defense. Same goes for an "untucked" pocket on his pants.
On Defense, all participants must be dresssed alike. If they ALL choose to look like "grunges", they're showing no respect for the sport . . . and attempting to show up their opponents in an "unsportsmanlike conduct".
Where's the "brain surgery" and "rocket science" in the solution?
At the "Munchkin" level, let 'em protest your decision! Show me a league anywhere in the world that allows its players to dress as they darn well please. (The "naked baseball league; maybe.)
