Road to redemption

Last August 25-27, MLB and the Players Association inaugurated the first-ever Players Weekend. Players Weekend was designed to allow every player to make custom designs to their bats, gloves, and most notably, the names on the back of their jerseys.

Some of the game’s best and brightest took part in the festivities, displaying their own custom nicknames. New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge had the phrase “All Rise” written on the back of his jersey, while Seattle Mariners third baseman Kyle Seager had “Corey’s Brother” on his back, in a nod to the popularity of his brother, who plays for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
