As I was watching the replay of the June 19 game between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Oakland A's, in the pre-game ceremonies, injured LosAngeles Dodgers star Mark Ellis delivered the line-up card to theumpires. It's a standard ceremonial procedure that happens beforethe start of every MLB game. Mark Ellis is a former Oakland A's player and he was honored by his formercity, as the game was in Oakland. As a Dodger fan, it was cool tosee the sportsmanship between the teams and the positive receptionEllis got from the Oakland crowd.
Ellis was joined at home plate by the umpiring crew, along with twomembers of the Oakland A's, shortstop Cliff Pennington and catcher Kurt Suzuki.The television cameras were up close afterthe card exchange and as I watched the players shake hands, Inoticed something odd. A's catcher Kurt Suzuki was wearing what looked like bright white nail polish, brightenough to catch my attention when he shook hands with Ellis. I did some checking and although some MLB catchers do use nail polish , some use white tape and some use Wite-Out, Suzuki endorses a a commerical product, called Game Signs , which is used by many MLB catchers. The product is a set ofsmall, bright stickers that cover the nails, eliminating the needto tape fingers or paint nails.
All these techniques are attempts to make their finger-tips morevisible when calling signals. New York Yankees pitcher RussellMartin also does it, and even posed for a photo showing his two-tone red and white nails. It makes sense to me,and I guess if so many catchers are public about their use ofpolish or stickers, it must be within the MLB rules. I think itshould be against the rules, as why not allow the catchers to dyetheir gloves white or paint them flourescent orange to make themmore visible to the pitcher. As the Dodgers lost the June 19th game and Dodgers catcher A.J.Ellis does not paint or sticker his nails, as a Dodger fan, itmakes me wonder whether the A's had an advantage of the Dodgersbecause of it.
