DLD 2/11: Good news for the High Socks Crew

A entire major league team has decided to go high socks.

Unfortunately, it's the Devil Rays:


Devil Rays manager Hal McRae has implemented a new dress code, banning earrings on the field and requiring players to wear solid green stirrups and keep their pant legs high enough to show at least 4 inches of the sock. In response, many are now wearing their pants in the old-fashioned style with the socks exposed to knee length.

"I'm not a big fan, but Hal makes the rules," veteran catcher John Flaherty said. "Instead of one or two guys looking like idiots, now we'll all look like idiots together."
