LL Ump Dan fashion comes to MLB?
Any idea why the umpires were sporting the blue wristbands tonight? I caught them during the Yankee/Met highlights on Sportscenter and became.......fearful.

Freeze Dried brain fart. I'm immensely tired after working 12 straight days. I'll go sit in my corner now.

As Rut indicated in post #3, Father's Day is the day which the ML umpires chose to highlight awareness of Prostate Cancer.

It is Father's day.
Blue for prostate cancer. Just like you saw Pink on Mother's day for Breast Cancer.

I didn't see any, but there were some games where the bases were light blue.

Players, coaches and umpires were also wearing ribbons on their uniforms and shirts.

Ribbons? Why does this remind me of the Seinfeld episode in which Kramer refuses to wear the AIDS ribbon?
