As part of the new Collective Bargaining Agreement between Major League Baseball and the MLB Player’s Union, the league has officially banned teams and their players from engaging in any sort of hazing activity, according to The Associated Press.
The new Anti-Hazing and Anti-Bullying Policy extends to rookie players being told to dress up as women, including, but not limited to female superheroes, cheerleaders, and Hooter’s girls.
The actual policy, as reported by The Associated Press, calls for an end to “requiring, coercing, or encouraging” players from “dressing up as women or wearing costumes that may be offensive to individuals based on their race, sex, nationality, age, sexual orientation, gender identify, or other characteristic.
