Fish Tank | Palm Beach Post Marlins players will swing pink bats and wear pink wristbands and pink shoes at Dodger Stadium as part of an annual Mother’s Day tradition by Major League Baseball to raise awareness of breast cancer. Today, there’s a new item being added on the field during games — baseballs with pink stitching and logos. Marlins players embrace the cause, but some think enough is enough. “How far are we going to take it with all the pink stuff?” asked first baseman Greg Dobbs. “What’s next? Pink helmets? Pink belts?
