Post Red Sox Manager Bothered By MLB Fashion Police During Game

Quote:
NEW YORK (AP) -- Major League Baseball's style police were patrolling Yankee Stadium, and Red Sox manager Terry Francona was pulled over.

During the second inning of Wednesday night's game against the New York Yankees, Francona was called out of the dugout so an MLB security official could make sure he was wearing his uniform top under his usual Boston pullover jacket.

"When Derek Jeter is on second base and I got somebody coming from the league making me go down the runway, I was a little perturbed," Francona said Thursday.

It was probably just someone on the Yankees or someone on their staff trying to catch Francona off guard. It's the only explaination I can come up with, since he wears a sweatshirt every game. I actually don't remember ever seeing him wear just the uniform. How the hell have I written almost a complete paragraph on this?

Well it wasn't the MLB taking the initiative on their own. If anyone from their offices have watched a Red Sox game at all this year, they know Francona has always worn a sweater. They would've called him on it much earlier in the year, instead of during a Red Sox/Yankees game.

It was the MLB. They even apologized for it afterwards.
