These two fans prove you don't need a glove to make an amazing catch
Should you bring a glove to the ballpark? It's a hotly contested debate -- one that isn't really about gloves at all. It's actually about this question:

Baseball has home uniforms, road uniforms, alternate uniforms, throwback uniforms, high socks, low socks, stirrup socks, sunglasses, no glasses, beards, goatees, mustaches, long hair, no hair and everything in between. It's not all about how you look, but it is at least somewhat about how you look. And these fans look really, really cool.
