While there will not be blue bats, MLB does do things for prostate cancer awareness. On Father’s Day, coaches, managers, players and even groundskeepers wear blue to show their support, and all home teams will feature a special MLB/Father’s Day blue ribbon logo on batting helmets, will have blue ribbons on the bases, home plate and the pitching rubber, and will use special lineup cards. In addition, MLB teams will raise money during that week from donations pledged by fans and sponsors who make pledges based on how many home runs are hit during 60 selected games during father’s Day Week. Since 1997, MLB has helped raise more than $28 million through the Home Run Challenge to assist in prostate cancer research, including $2.8 million last season. So no blue bats, but a lot of other good things going on.
