FED 1-4-2 states: ART. 2 ... For individual players, uniform sleeve lengths may vary. However, sleeves of each individual player shall be approximately the same length and shall not be ragged, frayed or slit. If the pitcher's undershirt sleeves are exposed, they shall not be white or gray. A pitcher shall not wear any item on his hands, wrists or arms which may be distracting to the batter. Now I've never gotten any complaints about F1 wearing normal sunglasses (never ran into the mirrored variety) but I am sure that some coach, somewhere may try to extend FED 1-4-2 to include sunglasses.
Personally, if F1 needs sunglasses in order to see properly, I am not going to say a word. Hell, the batter should be looking for the ball and that is usually somewhere around F1's hand, isn't it?

Kevin Gregg of the Florida Marlins started wearing reflective sunglasses while pitching, even at night. The shades have become his signature . . . and a key to his success, or so he says. Gregg wears them at night to reduce the glare from stadium lights, he said.
There's nothing in any MLB rule book or manual that prohibits the use of reflective sunglasses, that I'm aware of. Obviously, MLB hasn't done anything to prevent Kevin from wearing them. Jerry |

And, while I agree that if the umpire thinks there is an issue that the glasses should be removed, that's not the point I was making and is not relevant to the statement you made. |

F1 with sunglasses No need to restate it. FTM, you could call it UC. But if I have a B with a legitimate complaint, then off they go. Until then, on they stay unless they offend me.

You didn't produce a rule that applies.
