Back for a second consecutive year, MLB players across the league will be able to show their personalities and passion during Players’ Weekend. This year’s event is Aug. 24-26.
Players again will be able to wear their nicknames instead of their last names on their jerseys. And they’ll have the choice of wearing T-shirts highlighting a cause or charity during pregame workouts and postgame interviews.
