Bio/Historical NoteShirt worn by Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Brad Boxberger in games on August 25 and August 26, 2018 during MLB's second annual Players Weekend. The "Little League" jersey design includes a "Thank You" patch on one sleeve under which Brad wrote "Mom and Dad." Rather than a last name on the back of the jersey, players were allowed to select a nickname. Boxberger chose to use emojis of a box and a hamburger, the first use of emojis on an MLB uniform.
