glove regs.

Some friends and I are trying to get an answer to the following question...

OBR 1.14 reads in part......The glove shall not measure more than 12" from the tip of any one of the 4 fingers, through the ball pocket to the bottom edge or heel of glove. The glove shall not measure more than 73/4" wide, measured from the inside seam at base of first finger, along base of other fingers, to the outside edge of little finger edge of glove.
There is even a diagram (referred to as Diagram #4) Watch any major league game and it will be easy to spot player wearing a glove in excess on 12". Wilson advertises that it's Y. Puig's glove measures 12.75".
Is this simply a case of a rule that is no longer followed?
