    I miss the bullpen car and the "no pepper" sign behind home plate. And a player would stay in the game if he broke a nail or got his hair messed up..lol

    What about leaving your glove on the field in between innings? That must have been fun, twisting your ankle on a glove while chasing a foul pop-up.

    I may be wrong, but I recall they left them on the field for the opposing team to use? I don't know why that stuck with me, but I thought that was the reason before.
