Can someone explain to me why Terrance Gore is holding batting gloves on the bases? Weird.

 

Sometimes guys do that to prevent them from extending their fingers in a head first slide and risking broken fingers or other injuries

Huh, I have played and watched a lot of baseball in my life, but never knew that was a thing. I’ve obviously seen plenty of guys take off and hold their batting gloves, but it seemed strange for a pinch runner to have them in his hands... but apparently that’s a thing with an actual reason for it. Thanks!

Not just “at Night” anymore.
