Since When Does the MLB Have the Right to Talk Fashion?

Major League Baseball has decreed that managers will be fined if they wear pullovers over their uniform tops. The rule seems to be pointed squarely at Terry Francona, who loves his pullover.

Deadspin beat us to it when they joked, "You're next, Belichick!" Like hell. The NFL will have to pry that hoodie out of Belichick's cold, dead hands before he'll let it go.

What's the big deal? Baseball players are not exactly beauties. If the MLB wants to make the franchise more civilized and fashionable, then they could start by telling players to spit less--as if that's ever gonna happen.
