MLB Blows Off Labor Day

[Puget Sound Angel]

I don't get it.

For Memorial Day and the Fourth of July,  MLB celebrates with special jerseys and hats to mark the holidays.

Yet today for Labor Day, nothing. You would think it was just another Sunday in the long grind of a season.

Ya think it has something to do with MLB's going to war with the players association over the decades? If so, that is pretty petty. 

Hell, even the Angels did not play Monday.

Ask @Lou about the importance of Labor Day.

[Glen]

Maybe if we spelled it "Labour" as the Queen intended it would be taken more seriously.

[Dick B Back]

Doesn’t Labor Day have something to do with pregnant women?

You're really that upset about not being able to buy an ugly hat that will be in the bargain rack of your local sporting goods store next month?

 

MLB gives the Labor Day holiday about as much thought as the rest of us.

[Stradling]

Rack em!

[Claude]

Even the Yankees took the day off

I thought Labor Day was a day off?  Why shouldn't millionaires who play a game for a living also be included?
