Comes out of the box with a little bit of tack to it. It would probably prevent most players from using anything, even the rosin bag, just because it has a good grip already and there\u2019s really no need to do anything else.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo to me, this starts and ends with just a better baseball overall.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Britton, the Yankees\u2019 player representative, echoed teammate Gerrit Cole (another member of the MLB Players Association\u2019s executive subcommittee) in hoping MLB will have conversations with the union about finding a middle ground on the issue. The league announced this week that it will begin on Monday to crack down on pitchers using any form of sticky substances.<\/p>\n<p>The sudden enforcement of the rule has pitchers concerned about being able to grip the baseball.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"696\" alt=\"Zack Britton\" class=\"wp-image-18573931 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/06\/Zack-Britton-4.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/06\/Zack-Britton-4.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/06\/Zack-Britton-4.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/06\/Zack-Britton-4.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/06\/Zack-Britton-4.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1766 1766w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Zack Britton<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">AP<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cYou can police the rule as much as you want if the baseball\u2019s in good condition and you can grip it \u2014 there\u2019d be no excuse to go to anything other than just throwing the baseball with nothing on your hands,\u201d Britton said.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>Aaron Judge, who won the 2017 Home Run Derby in Miami, said he has no plans to reenter his name for event next month in Denver.<\/p>\n<p>        <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Podcast\" width=\"100%\" height=\"188px\" src=\"https:\/\/embed.acast.com\/pinstripe-pod\/sanchez-shotbat-stantonintheoutfield?accentColor=2a2a2a&amp;bgColor=f6f6f6&amp;font-family=proxima%20nova&amp;logo=false&amp;secondaryColor=cc3333\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none;overflow:hidden;\"><br \/>\n        <\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI haven\u2019t even thought of it, to be honest,\u201d Judge said. \u201cI got no interest right now, unless the All-Star Game\u2019s back in New York soon.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>After exiting Thursday\u2019s game against the Blue Jays with lower-back stiffness, shortstop Gleyber Torres was in the lineup Friday batting third.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think we\u2019re good there,\u201d manager Aaron Boone said.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>Gary Sanchez, who was hitting .333 (19-for-57) in his last 17 games, was out of the starting lineup.
