Otis Nixon, Twins, 1998: Nixon played for 10 teams over 17 years, including a one-season stopover in Minnesota, where he wore an unusual mask that was sort of football-based, but there was more to it than that. He is, to Uni Watch's knowledge, the last MLB player to wear anything approaching a football-style mask on the field.

Celebrities can’t stop wearing these face masks that don’t stick to your face
By now you probably have a plethora of fabric face masks to wear every day — whether it’s for running errands, traveling on a bus or plane or working out. Face masks are the new normal of 2020 and will most likely be a necessity through 2021, too.
While we’ve found some of the best fabric face masks online, there’s one that stands out from the rest — one that A-listers like Lucy Hale, Joe Jonas, Aston Kutcher, Madelaine Petsch, Olivia Wilde and more have been spotted wearing. Peep Lucy Hale below wearing said face mask earlier this year.
If you’re ready to ditch disposable face masks for good to start wearing reusable ones that are washer-friendly, Rothy’s fabric face mask is a best seller that’s proven not to stick to your face. The proof? I’ve tested it out.
On the inside of the mask, you’ll find a nose piece that helps keeps the mask’s shape, which ultimately helps the mask rest on the tip of your nose, so that the rest of the fabric is not completely resting on your face. It sits close to your face but not too tight or in a way where you feel like you can’t breathe.
I recently wore the Rothy’s mask on a long flight, and it didn’t cause any irritation or discomfort. The only downside to this mask is that the ear loops are not adjustable. If you love the flexibility of tightening or loosening your mask, this one might not be for you. However, I can attest to its comfiness without the adjustable straps.
"This comes down to more of a failure of every position, including coaches, to facilitate a functioning offense. That's the biggest story here, not that Jalen Hurts is picked and there was some sort of internal battle and struggle going on with Carson Wentz. I don't buy that."

Allen's No. 15 was retired by the Phillies in September, an honor that was considered long overdue by many for one of the franchise's greatest players who fought against racism during a tumultuous period with the team in the 1960s.

The Tampa Bay resident made headlines a week ago when he gave an interview decrying the legitimacy of COVID-19. It made all the sense in the world that West would be a Coronavirus truther. At first, the reaction of most was to pile on West for continuing to be a silly man. This reaction made sense given how we previously treated the umpire who likes to be called Cowboy. The truth is that West’s conspiracy-laden views on the current pandemic aren’t something to be laughed at, not when West plans to umpire games sans a cloth or surgical mask.

MLB said in the memo it made many of the changes after evaluating results of its investigation into the Marlins outbreak. The league also said it is working with the union to review contact tracing protocols, specifically the requirements for identified close contacts. Close contacts do not currently include passing interactions or physical contact unlikely to pass secretions, such as elbow bumps.
The moment came on Aug. 28, 1964, when a rumor spread around North Philadelphia that two white cops had beaten a pregnant Black woman to death. The story was false, but the history of white police officers brutalizing Black residents was not. For three days, Philadelphia exploded in riots, leaving an estimated 300 injured and two dead.
