Mothers receive special blessing, flower at Cathedral Mother’s Day Mass
Like at all major league stadiums Sunday, on-field personnel for the Dodgers-Atlanta Braves game could wear the special breast cancer awareness pink ribbon decals on jerseys and may wear pink socks, wristbands and batting gloves.
Major League players were also able to use pink, customized bats. Commemorative base jewels and lineup cards featuring the special Mother’s Day/breast cancer awareness logo also could be used.
Major League Baseball directs all of its royalties from on-field Mother’s Day socks to MLB Charities, which will donate those funds equally to Stand Up To Cancer and Susan G. Komen to support their work in the fight against breast cancer.
