The fans were stunned as New Yanke’s Star Debüt’s Clean Race look because of the “paralyzed rule of all time”.

The Yankees-Pitcher Devin Williams made a new, cleanly shaved look on Wednesday, which prompted the fans to reduce the team’s “stupid” long-held facial hair policy.

Since the 1970s, when the deceased George Steinbrenner took over the team, the Yankees have banned the players of having bears or long hair.

Steinbrenner, who came from an air force background, officially started in 1976 to “convey a certain feeling for order and discipline,” he said.

The rule did not prohibit mustache and was later changed to allow ‘mutton catchers’.

Nevertheless, many players were forced over the years to cancel their facial hair, and Williams – a one -year, 8.6 million US dollar in this offseason – reported on Wednesday without his signature beard.

The 30-year-old, who had a light mustache on Wednesday, wore a fat bear when he played for the brewers, and it wrote with the spraying that he hadn’t been clean for six years.

And in response to the new look of Williams, Baseball fans went to the platform to beat up the team’s appearance.

“Lahest rule of all time,” said one.

“It looks unhappy and I don’t accuse him,” added another. ‘It is not the military. It is baseball. Hate this rule that the Yankees enforce ”

“Rule doesn’t make sense,” said a third. “I think the players should not be prisoners in a team and should be themselves. What does the rule help? Why are the mustache permitted and not a beard? ‘

And a fourth said: “Damn aura is somewhat reduced. Please at least give my husband a little stubble.

The rule caused some dramatic makeovers in the Bronx, with Johnny Damon still had to shave the shaggy beard and the hair he wore during the Red Sox.

And many players have questioned the guideline.

The former Yankees outfield Cameron Maybin, who played for the team in 2019, tore the rule in a post in December 2023 to X.

“This may be an unpopular attitude for Yankees fans, but they would be surprised how much more attractive the Yankees would be if they could get rid of this face hair rule,” he said.

“You would not believe how many high -quality players only believe that it is a crazy rule. I mean CMON, we come to 2024, let it go and I swear that it would be more attractive. This also only comes from conversations that I played and that I actually have when playing. ‘

In 2013, the auxiliary mug Brian Wilson also refused to sign his beard – and led the team to give up their persecution of him in the free agency.

Andrew McCutchen, who played for the team in 2018, later also said in the sports bubbles -Podcast that the rule “takes away our individualism as a player and as humans”.

Williams’ cleanly shaved appearance came on Wednesday when the Pitchers and Catchers of the Yankees reported for spring training in Florida.

The Yankees will play their first spring training game of the year on Friday, February 21st.
