    Having allowed players to use pink bats, wristbands and cleats in the past, Major League Baseball is going all-out for Mother's Day and Father's Day this season.

    What does that mean? Pink and blue will be worked into every team's uniforms for each respective holiday.

    It's just another way for the league to pay tribute to the special occasions.

    Major League Baseball has made a point to honor America in recent years with "Stars and Stripes" uniforms. This season will be no different:
