Ever wondered why so many MLB players sport chains around their necks? It’s not just about making a fashion statement.
These chains often carry deep personal significance, from religious symbols to customized number pendants that represent their unique identity on the field.
Imagine stepping up to bat, feeling the weight of a gold-plated number pendant that shines as brightly as your aspirations.
Athletes like David Ortiz have popularized this trend, turning it into a cultural phenomenon in the league. Some players wear chains as a nod to their faith, kissing a cross pendant before stepping up to the plate.
