ESPN: Spring brings all sorts of new MLB looks

• Memorial patches just for Cactus League games. That’s the patch the Rangers are wearing this spring in honor of longtime front-office employee Bobby Bragan—possibly the first memorial patch ever designated exclusively for spring training use.

• The odd ritual of photo day. This is the only time you’ll see players wearing jerseys that are blank on the back and photographers taking photos of other photographers.

• Unusual wildlife. We’ve all seen squirrels, cats, and other animals on the diamond. But only during spring training will you see a toad in Cardinals camp.

• Prince Fielder actually running. OK, so that happens in the regular season too, but it’s still pretty funny to see.

actual links to the pictures in the article, not sure how to link it on here.
